A question regarding delaying the Maghrib prayer until the time of 'Isha'
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
I travel with some of my family to a neighboring town about fifty kilometers from our town to buy some necessities, and we return with the Maghrib prayer. Sometimes we do not leave until late due to traffic and the shortness of the Maghrib time, and we may not arrive until the second call to 'Isha' prayer, meaning after the time for Maghrib has passed. Is it permissible for us in this case, given the distance and the hardship it causes the women, to delay the Maghrib prayer until we reach our town?
Answer:
There is no blame on you for delaying the Maghrib prayer, given the circumstances you described, until you reach the town, in order to remove the hardship. However, if it is easy to perform it on the way, that is better.
