The questioner : May the mercy and blessings of Allah be upon you.
The Shaykh : Peace be upon you, and Allah's mercy and blessings.
The questioner : If a person is traveling and wishes to combine two prayers, such as the Maghrib and 'Isha' prayers, what should he do regarding the dhikr after the Maghrib prayer? Is the dhikr after 'Isha' sufficient for him, or does he say it after the 'Isha' prayer and then proceed to the dhikr he usually recites after 'Isha'?
The Shaykh : Yes, if he combines the two prayers, is one dhikr sufficient for both, or is there a dhikr for each prayer? It appears that one dhikr is sufficient. One dhikr is sufficient because this act of worship is combined and they are of the same type, so one suffices for the other. And if he recites his usual tasbih for this one and his usual tasbih for that one, that is good.
The questioner : Well, Shaykh, it is known that the dhikr after the Maghrib prayer is longer than the dhikr after the 'Isha' prayer, is it not?
The Shaykh : Yes, the majority say that the majority mean he remembers Allah ten times and recites tasbih.
The questioner : Does he mix them together?
The Shaykh : Yes, he mixes them together, and there is no harm in that, because it is all dhikr.
The Shaykh : Peace be upon you, and Allah's mercy and blessings.
