The ruling on delaying the prayer within its time due to being occupied

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
This is a woman asking, and she says: I am sometimes occupied with the affairs of my children, so I do not pray except when my mind is clear, and I delay the prayer at times. What is the ruling on that? And I delay the prayer at times.

The Shaykh:
You say.

The questioner:
I am sometimes occupied with the affairs of my children, and I delay the prayer until I settle down and become humble in the prayer,

The Shaykh:
Yes, delaying is permissible within the time as long as the time remains; delaying is permissible, especially if one has a need. As for delaying such that the prayer exits its time, this is not permissible. Yes.
