The Intention to Combine Prayers While Traveling
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
A group of people went on a trip, and the distance was more than (150 km), so they prayed the Maghrib prayer,And after they prayed Maghrib, they said to the imam: combining it with us, and after consultation they stood up and combined the prayers,So when the prayer ended, one of them said: but the imam did not intend to combine the prayers, so you must repeat the prayer, or pray it in its proper time. What is your opinion on this issue?
The correct view is that if the reason for combining prayers is present, whether in travel, illness, rain, or any other reason that permits combining, then combining is permissible whether one intends it before the prayer or after the prayer. Accordingly, the action of these brothers is permissible, and they should not be objected to as long as they are on a long journey.
