The answer

It is permissible for a traveler to shorten the four-rak'ah prayers if their journey is lawful and its distance is no less than eighty-three kilometers, after passing all the houses of their village. Where shortening is permissible, it is also permissible to combine prayers that share a time (Dhuhr with Asr, and Maghrib with Isha) either by bringing the later prayer forward (jama' taqdim) or delaying the earlier prayer (jama' ta'khir).
