Combining the midday and afternoon prayers for the sake of rain falling
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A questioner says: What is the ruling on combining the midday and afternoon prayers for the sake of rain falling?
The Shaykh:
If there is rain that wets the clothes or there is mud, some scholars have permitted this. However, the practice followed is combining only the sunset and night prayers. This is the practice followed in this land: combining the sunset and night prayers, because people take shelter in their homes at night, making it difficult for them to go out in the rain. As for during the day, they go out to their needs, opening their shops and working in their farms. Yes.
The questioner:
Completion.
The Shaykh:
And Allah the Exalted knows best, and may Allah send blessings and peace upon our Prophet Muhammad.
