The answer

If you are harmed by leaving the exam and are unable to perform the Asr and Maghrib prayers at their appointed times at the examination venue, and it is not possible to seek permission for prayer, then we hope that you find latitude in adopting the opinion of those who permit jama (combining prayers) for any general need. In this case, you would pray Asr with Dhuhr, and intend to delay Maghrib to combine it with Isha as jama takhir (delayed combination) after returning home. However, one must be diligent in praying on time and not resort to this concession except when truly needed.
