The ruling on combining the Maghrib and 'Isha' prayers without an excuse
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Some people combine the Maghrib and 'Isha' prayers at certain times without an excuse, citing the hadith of Ibn 'Umar that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) combined the Maghrib and 'Isha' prayers.
Answer:
Al-'Abbas. Look at al-'Abbas. No, this is a mistake; it is not permissible. The Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) set the times for the prayers and defined them, so it is not permissible to combine them except for an excuse, such as illness, rain, or travel. The hadith of Ibn al-'Abbas is abrogated, or for an excuse not mentioned in the hadith, as Ibn al-'Abbas said, "so as not to burden his Ummah (community)." It is either illness, a general excuse, or other effects. The hadiths of the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) explain one another and clarify one another. He set the times for the prayers and said, "Pray as you have seen me praying" (peace and blessings be upon him).
The presenter:
May Allah reward you with good.
