Sunan Abi Dawud 1220 (Book 4, Hadith 23) #21512
Combining Prayers During Battle of Tabuk

SUMMARY: The Prophet ﷺ was engaged in the Battle of Tabuk and would combine prayers if he moved off before or after certain times.

Narrated Mu'adh ibn Jabal: The Prophet was engaged in the Battle of Tabuk. If he moved off before the sun had declined, he would delay the noon prayer till he would combine it with the afternoon prayer and would offer them together. If he moved off after the sun had declined, he would combine the noon and afternoon prayers, and then he proceeded; if he moved off before the evening prayer, he would delay the evening prayer; he would offer it along with the night prayer, he would delay the evening prayer; he would offer it along with the night prayer. If he moved off after the evening prayer, he would offer the night prayer earlier and offer it along with the evening prayer. Abu Dawud said: This tradition has not been narrated by anyone except by Qutaibah.
حَدَّثَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، أَخْبَرَنَا اللَّيْثُ، عَنْ يَزِيدَ بْنِ أَبِي حَبِيبٍ، عَنْ أَبِي الطُّفَيْلِ، عَامِرِ بْنِ وَاثِلَةَ عَنْ مُعَاذِ بْنِ جَبَلٍ، أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ كَانَ فِي غَزْوَةِ تَبُوكَ إِذَا ارْتَحَلَ قَبْلَ أَنْ تَزِيغَ الشَّمْسُ أَخَّرَ الظُّهْرَ حَتَّى يَجْمَعَهَا إِلَى الْعَصْرِ فَيُصَلِّيهِمَا جَمِيعًا وَإِذَا ارْتَحَلَ بَعْدَ زَيْغِ الشَّمْسِ صَلَّى الظُّهْرَ وَالْعَصْرَ جَمِيعًا ثُمَّ سَارَ وَكَانَ إِذَا ارْتَحَلَ قَبْلَ الْمَغْرِبِ أَخَّرَ الْمَغْرِبَ حَتَّى يُصَلِّيَهَا مَعَ الْعِشَاءِ وَإِذَا ارْتَحَلَ بَعْدَ الْمَغْرِبِ عَجَّلَ الْعِشَاءَ فَصَلاَّهَا مَعَ الْمَغْرِبِ ‏.‏ قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُدَ وَلَمْ يَرْوِ هَذَا الْحَدِيثَ إِلاَّ قُتَيْبَةُ وَحْدَهُ

QUICK LESSONS:
Follow God's commands by combining prayers when needed during difficult times such as war or battle .

EXPLANATIONS:
During the time of the Prophet's engagement in the Battle of Tabuk, he would combine his prayers if he moved off before or after certain times. For example, if he moved off before the sun had declined, he would delay his noon prayer until it could be combined with his afternoon prayer and offered together. If he moved off after the sun had declined, then both prayers could be combined and offered together. Similarly, if he left before evening prayer then that too could be combined with night prayer and offered together. However, if left after evening prayer then night prayer was to be done earlier so that it can be combined with evening prayer. This shows us how important it is to pray on time as well as how flexible one can be when needed in order to fulfill their religious obligations even during difficult times such as war or battle.
