The ruling on combining two prayers for the sick person

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Sometimes I pray at home, and sometimes I combine the midday and afternoon prayers, and sometimes I delay the time. I have a lung condition that is troubling me, and I cannot remove the oxygen from my person for more than an hour, so I am affected by it.

Answer:
Combining prayers is only permissible for the sick person. If you have an illness and you need to combine, there is no harm in that. But as long as you do not have an illness that necessitates combining two prayers in the time of one of them, you pray each prayer in its own time. Yes.
