Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A questioner says: What is the ruling on combining two prayers without a valid legal excuse?
Answer:
It is not permissible.[An-Nisa 4:103] The prayers are prescribed at their specific times, so combining them is not permissible except for travel that allows shortening the prayer, or for illness, or combining Maghrib and 'Isha' due to rain and the like. Yes. Shortening the prayer is a recommended practice (sunnah), and combining them is permissible (mubah); it is not a recommended practice, but it is permissible out of need. Yes.
