Traveling at the time of Salah

Q 2: If my wife is with me, is it permissible for me to perform Salah (Prayer) at home or at my destination? Please advise me on this matter and may Allah keep and safeguard you.


A: If the time for Salah (Prayer) begins before you start your journey, you should perform Salah with the congregation at the Masjid (mosque) and leave afterwards. But if the time for Salah starts after you have left and the Salah is one that is valid to combine with the following one, such as Zhuhr (Noon) Prayer with ‘Asr (Afternoon) Prayer or Maghrib (Sunset) Prayer with ‘Isha’ (Night) Prayer, it is permissible for you to delay the current one and combine it with the next-in-time Salah. If the Salah cannot be combined with the following one, such as ‘Asr, ‘Isha’, or Fajr (Dawn) Prayers, it is not permissible for you to delay it from its time.May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, and his family, and Companions!
