Question:
A group of pilgrims flew from Riyadh yesterday at 1:30 and headed to Jeddah, where they performed 'Umrah. After the 'Umrah, they went to their camp in Mina and arrived at 11:00 AM on the Day of Tarwiyah. One of the scholars issued a fatwa for them to combine the Dhuhr and 'Asr prayers with shortening, out of consideration for their fatigue. Is this reason sufficient to permit combining? It is known that they are travelers from Riyadh for Hajj.
Answer:
The one who stays shortens but does not combine. A traveler who stays shortens the four-rak'ah prayer and does not combine, because he is staying; what is the need for combining? This is the Sunnah.
