The questioner:
Your third question. The third and final one. May Allah reward you with good. What is the criterion for combining, not shortening? People have differed greatly on this. The bond for combining has become such that people combine inside their homes, people combine outside their homes, and people combine on the highways. What is the criterion for combining?
The presenter:
Thank you.
The Shaykh:
Combining in travel or in the case of rain?
The presenter:
In both. In both.
The Shaykh:
If shortening is permissible in travel, then combining is permissible for him. As for the rain, this rain is only between Maghrib and 'Isha'. The rain that wets the clothes or leaves mud on the road to the mosque, combining is permissible for this, yes, between Maghrib and 'Isha'.
