The Shaykh : Is it permissible for one who prays alone on a rainy day to combine the midday and afternoon prayers while he is a resident?
Yes, if he is praying with the congregation and they see combining the midday and afternoon prayers due to the rain, there is nothing wrong with it. But if he is praying in his house, he has no need to combine, because the wisdom behind combining when they are a congregation is that they will go out to the mosque and it would be difficult for them. As for the one who prays in his house, he does not combine. For this reason, we say: women do not combine on rainy days. Do you know this? This is the case with Faisal.
