Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. Regarding the combining of the midday and afternoon prayers by the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) at 'Arafah, was it combining with shortening the prayer or with completing it?
Answer:
Yes, it is combining with shortening. This is because the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) was a traveler coming from Madinah. As for the pilgrims, the people of Makkah combine with the pilgrims, and their ruling is the ruling of the pilgrims, even if they are not travelers, because their ruling is the ruling of the pilgrims. This is because the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) did not order the people of Makkah, when they performed Hajj with him, to complete the prayer. Yes.
