Question:
The questioner asks: Is it valid to combine prayers without shortening, or to shorten a prayer and combine it with another prayer without shortening? For example, if I pray the midday prayer shortened, and then pray the afternoon prayer with a congregation of residents. May Allah reward you?
Answer:
Yes, it is permissible for you, if you are a traveler, to shorten and to combine. You may shorten both prayers, or you may shorten one prayer and complete the other for a reason, such as being with a congregation that completes the prayer. There is no harm in that. Yes.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you.
