Combining prayers for rain in the house alone
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A questioner says: The mosques near my house did not combine the prayer because of the rain. Is it permissible for me to combine the prayer in my house alone?
Answer:
Meaning, you missed the prayer. Combine with the Muslims, combine with the Muslims, and do not combine in your house. In your house, combining is not a thing. You are on a high place, in a location where there is no rain, so do not combine. Yes. There is no one among the jurists who says that the dispensation is general, such that if they combine in the mosque, it is permissible for the people of the houses, and even for women, to combine. But this is an expansion of the opinion. Yes.
