Is it permissible for a traveling woman to combine the Dhuhr and Asr prayers on Friday, and what is the ruling if she is in the mosque?
Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
For a traveler, it is permissible to combine the Dhuhr and Asr prayers, and the Maghrib and Isha prayers, either by advancing or delaying them. Friday prayer is not obligatory for women, but it is valid if she prays it with the Imam in the mosque. If she prays in her home, she should pray Dhuhr as four rak'ahs. It is not permissible to combine the Friday prayer and the Asr prayer. If a woman is traveling on Friday and did not pray the Friday prayer in the mosque, it is permissible for her to combine the Dhuhr and Asr prayers.
