Im currently studying abroad in Cairo Egypt for approx 5 weeks or so.I was staying with family in a close by city prior to the start of this program so.Some of the students are combining their prayers which is ofocurse much easier for them.am i allowed to do so? are there different opinions?
JazakALLAH Khair in advance
Wasalamu alaykum waRahamtulahi WaBarakatu
Verily, His Command, when He intends a thing, is only that He says to it, Be! and it is.
عن ابن عباس أن النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم كان يصلى بالمدينة يجمع بين الصلاتين بين الظهر والعصر والمغرب والعشاء من غير خوف ولا مطر قيل له لم قال لئلا يكون على أمته حرج
Rough translation: "Reported by Ibn Abbas that the Prophet used to pray at Madeenah, combining the prayers of Zuhr and Asr, and Maghrib and Isha, without (anything of) fear nor rain. He (the Prophet ) was asked why; He (the Prophet ) said so that there shouldn't be hardship on the ummah."
so Prophet pbuh offered noon salat at the last moment of the waqt/ time and offered Asr just when time begins ? Again he offered Magrib after one hour of sunset and then prayed Isa ?
Can anyone explain more ?
Christ will never be proud to reject to be a slave to God .....holy Quran, chapter Women , 4: 172
Combining of prayers is a disputed matter; while some schools opinions suggest its valid in all circumstances, others say its only allowed in extreme circumstances. Both have some evidence to back their claims, just like the Hadeeth I posted above; which states its allowed in any circumstances.
