Question:
This questioner, Umm Khalid, has a set of questions—O Shaykh, she says: Regarding the Zuhr and 'Asr prayers, if a person is traveling and prays Zuhr as two rak'ahs, is it permissible for him, for example, to separate the Zuhr and 'Asr prayers by speaking, or by doing something, thereby separating the two prayers?
Answer:
It does not harm if he speaks, or stands up to relieve himself, or drinks, or eats; nothing harms him. Yes.
