Combining the 'Asr prayer with the Friday prayer for the traveler
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Is it permissible for a traveler who arrives in a town on Friday to combine the Friday prayer with the 'Asr prayer?
Answer:
This question has been asked repeatedly, and fatwas have been written on it, yet they are not obedient. It is not permissible to combine 'Asr with Dhuhr, and it is not permissible to combine 'Asr with the Friday prayer, because it is not of the same kind as 'Asr, and because this has not been reported from the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), nor from the Companions, nor from any of the recognized scholars. This has not been reported. A fatwa was issued by the Permanent Committee under the presidency of Shaykh Ibn Baz (may Allah have mercy on him) during his lifetime, because this is not permissible.
