Combining Prayers on Journeys

SUMMARY: On journeys, the Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) used to combine the Zuhr and 'Asr prayers as well as the Maghrib and 'Isha' prayers.

Narrated Ibn 'Abbas: Allah's Messenger used to offer the Zuhr and 'Asr prayers together on journeys, and also used to offer the Maghrib and 'Isha' prayers together. Narrated Anas bin Malik: The Prophet used to offer the Maghrib and the 'Isha' prayers together on journeys.
وَقَالَ إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ طَهْمَانَ عَنِ الْحُسَيْنِ الْمُعَلِّمِ، عَنْ يَحْيَى بْنِ أَبِي كَثِيرٍ، عَنْ عِكْرِمَةَ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ ـ رضى الله عنهما ـ قَالَ كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ يَجْمَعُ بَيْنَ صَلاَةِ الظُّهْرِ وَالْعَصْرِ إِذَا كَانَ عَلَى ظَهْرِ سَيْرٍ، وَيَجْمَعُ بَيْنَ الْمَغْرِبِ وَالْعِشَاءِ‏.‏

EXPLANATIONS:
The hadith narrated by Ibn 'Abbas and Anas bin Malik tells us that when travelling, Prophet Muhammad ﷺ used to combine his Zuhr and Asr prayers as well as his Maghrib and Isha' prayers. This is a sign of mercy from Allah towards His servants who are travelling, so that they can save time for other important tasks during their journey. It also teaches us that we should be mindful of our time in all aspects of life, not just when we are travelling. We should use our time wisely in order to make the most out of it.

Furthermore, this hadith also shows us how much importance Prophet Muhammad ﷺ placed on prayer; even while he was travelling he made sure to pray regularly without compromising its quality or quantity. This teaches us that prayer is an essential part of our lives no matter where we are or what we are doing; it should always be given priority over other activities in order for us to stay connected with Allah at all times.
