Question:
What are the agreed-upon excuses that make it permissible to combine two prayers
Answer:
Combining prayers is linked with hardship. When there is hardship, it is permissible to combine. It was narrated that Ibn Abbas said:
(( The prophet peace be upon him combined Zuhr and Asr, and Maghrib and "isha in Madina without fear or rain. When he was asked about the reason, he said: he didn't want to cause hardship to his nation. ))
