    Default combining prayers - allowed in sunni islam?

    Salaam aleykum wa rahmatAllah wa barakatuh


    Is it allowed to combine prayers (duhr, asr and magrheb iescha), when there is no other option - let us just assume that your job overlaps the praying times?

    Id like to know both hanafi and malikis view at this issue..

    Wa baraka allahu ta3laa feekum

    Assalaamu 'ala man ittaba' al huda,
    Job is not a valid excuse for missing the prayers in (sunni) Islam.
    Make wudhu before posting here -
    Keep them in your daily du'as.

    As Salamu Alaykum


    In the Shafi'i School its allowed to combine prayers and shorten prayers when on a valid trip of 81 kilometers/50 miles one way as well as other conditions like it is only valid to do so when one is intending on staying at the location for 3 days or less not including departure and arrival day.



    Wa Llahu Alim
    Imam ash-Shafi`i said, "Whoever takes knowledge from books loses the regulations." (man akhadha al-`ilma min al-kutubi Dayya`a al-aHkaama). [Reported by Nawawi in the introduction to "al-Majmu`"]

    You are not allowed to join prayers according to the Hanafi madhhab. You can pray in such a manner so that you pray your dhuhr prayer just as 'asr time is about to begin (and there is still time for dhuhr) and when 'asr time arrives, you continue on with 'asr salah after making the adhan.

    In Hanafi school we are allowed to shorten the prayers (kasar) only during long journeys.

    Regards combining prayers, there are ahadeeth allowing combining prayers but only as an EXCEPTION, not as a general rule like shias. The learned brothers/sisters here will elaborate further inshallah. I'm open to correction on this.

    Work is NEVER an excuse, in fact it's a rather pathetic excuse. You are telling me you are sooooo busy that you can't spare 5 mins for fardh salah????

    People will take toilet breaks and even prolong them at work, lasting 15 mins but can't spare 5 mins out of their "jam packed schedule" for the King of Kings??

    Subhanallah look at our state..

    Salaam


    Please if you dont have any valid proof, or if you come with long explinations then dont waste yours nor my own time..

    I say this because of this statement:

    Brother marco:

    You are correct, there are times when we CAN join prayers, specifically during hajj when one is at 'Arafat and Muzdalifa.

    Even with "proof" you'll never be happy. Have you seen the links that have been posted? Try reading them and you might learn something.
