The question

What are the available options for a Muslim to perform the Maghrib, Isha, and Fajr prayers in congregation if their times are very close (Maghrib at 10 PM, Isha at 11:15 PM, Fajr at 1:50 AM)? Is it permissible to combine Maghrib and Isha in this case? What is the evidence for this from the Quran and the Sunnah?

The answer

The time for Maghrib prayer extends from sunset until the disappearance of the red twilight. The time for Isha prayer is from the disappearance of the red twilight until midnight. The time for Fajr prayer is from the appearance of the second dawn until sunrise. Each prayer must be performed within its specified time, even if the times are close together, and this is patience for which a Muslim is rewarded.
