The Ruling on Delaying Prayer Due to Being Preoccupied

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Some people say: Shaykh, one delays the prayer for certain circumstances, such as traffic congestion in cars, or perhaps at work if he is running late, or perhaps a circumstance arises or a matter befalls him, so he delays the prayer until it subsides.

Answer:
If this matter occupies him from the prayer, he may delay it until this preoccupation is removed from him, then he prays. This is a valid legal excuse for him. Yes.
