The ruling on combining prayers for a traveler staying at a hotel

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, if a traveler is staying at a hotel or a house, and there are mosques nearby where the prayer is being held, is it permissible for him to combine the prayers at night, especially if he needs rest?

Answer:
If he needs rest, yes, he combines them. As for if he wants to sleep, for example, he is tired and wants to sleep, and he is a traveler, there is no harm in his combining and sleeping in the hotel or in his house. But if he is energetic, or if he will sit until the mu'adhdhin calls for the second prayer while he is sitting, then the best for him and the safest is that he goes to the mosque to pray with the congregation. Yes.
