The questioner : A traveler moving between Ta'if, Makkah, and Jeddah: Is it valid for him to combine prayers?
The Shaykh : Yes, it is valid for him to do so if it is easier for him. If it is not easier for him, he should not combine. However, if he does combine, there is no harm. For a traveler, if combining is easier for him, it is better to combine, either by advancing or delaying. If it is not easier for him, it is better not to combine, but if he does combine, there is no harm. Yes.
