Combining the midday and afternoon prayers for the one performing 'Umrah before traveling

Question:
The questioner says: Honorable Shaykh, I went to perform the 'Umrah (the lesser pilgrimage) and stayed there for two days, lodging in the Aziziyah district in Makkah. When it was time to return, I combined the midday and afternoon prayers at my place of residence, combining them by performing the afternoon prayer first, and then I traveled immediately afterward.

Answer:
There is nothing wrong with that. However, if you pray the midday or afternoon prayer in the mosque with the congregation, and then when you finish the prayer you stand up and perform the other prayer—if you pray the midday prayer with the congregation, you stand up and perform the afternoon prayer—there is nothing wrong with that. And this is better: that you separate yourself from the mosque and pray at home. You pray the prayer that is currently due with them, and then you combine the next prayer with it. Yes.
