Islamic Travel Prayer Guidelines

We came from the city of

Jeddah to visit the Prophet’s Mosque on Wednesday, and God willing,

we will return

after Friday prayers. May we combine and shorten?

You will arrive on Friday.

He says, “We came to visit. We came from

Jeddah to visit the Prophet’s Mosque on Wednesday, and God willing…”

This period that

you mentioned

is a period in which it is permissible for a traveler, if praying alone or with

other travelers, to perform shortened prayers.

If he needs to combine them, he may do so, for combining is not

obligatory, but rather a concession.

If he does it, there is no sin. If he does not, not doing so is better. Yes.

And Friday prayer with Asr?

If it is…

If you are going to

travel after leaving the mosque

and will remain only until Asr time begins,

then I hope there is no issue with combining them. Once the imam prays

and finishes the Friday prayer, stand and pray

Asr,

then travel. But if you intend to stay

for the rest of the day until evening, then do not, do not combine them, because

most scholars do not consider combining

permissible with Friday prayer. Yes.

May God bless you.
