Combining the Maghrib and 'Isha' prayers due to rain and the Tarawih prayer
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Abu 'Umaran, do you combine the 'Isha' prayer with the Maghrib prayer in the case of rain? How do you pray the prayer?
Answer:
They have come. As long as they have come for the Tarawih prayer, the purpose of combining is to save them from having to go out twice. So as long as they have come to pray Tarawih, they pray Tarawih. But yes, it is true, there is no harm in combining the prayers. There is no harm in combining them because of the rain, and they pray Tarawih afterwards. This makes it one outing for the two prayers and for Tarawih. There is no harm in that, but Tarawih must be after the 'Isha' prayer. They pray Maghrib, combine 'Isha' with it, and then they pray Tarawih, because combining is a dispensation in such a situation. Yes.
