Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. This questioner says: What is the ruling on combining the Zuhr and 'Asr prayers and shortening them before leaving the house, and before starting the journey?
Answer:
It is not permissible, and it does not suffice. He is still a resident until he leaves the town. If the prayer becomes obligatory for him while he is in the town, he must complete it and pray it in its time, and he does not combine 'Asr with it, because he has not yet started the journey. The journey does not begin until he leaves the inhabited part of the town. Yes.
