The ruling on delaying prayer while traveling until arrival

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
And he asked about shirk (associating partners with Allah): Is it permissible for a traveler, if the time for the midday prayer enters while he is traveling, to delay it until he reaches his town and completes the prayer before the time for the afternoon prayer enters?

Answer:
He has a choice as long as he is traveling, even if he is close to the town. So he has a choice: if he wishes, he prays on his way, shortening and combining; and if he wishes, he prays the current prayer on the way, shortening it, and delays the second one until he reaches the town, where he prays it. He has a choice. And the fact that he prays the current prayer shortened on the way and delays the second one until arrival, praying it as a traveler, is better and more excellent. Yes.
