1208. It was reported from Hishām bin Sa'd, from Abū Az-Zubair, from Abū At-Tufail, from Mu'ādh bin Jabal, that during the expedition of Tabūk, the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ would combine between Zuhr and 'Aṣr if the sun had started its descent before he started traveling. And if he traveled before the sun had started its descent, he would delay Zuhr until he camped at the time of 'Aṣr. And he would do the same for Maghrib; if the sun had set before he traveled, he would combine between Maghrib and 'Ishā', and if he traveled before the sun disappeared, he would delay Maghrib until he camped at the time of 'Ishā', then he would combine between them.
Abū Dāwūd said: Hishām bin 'Urwah reported it from Ḥusain bin 'Abdullāh, from Kuraib, from Ibn 'Abbās, from the Prophet ﷺ, similar to the narration of Al-Mufaḍḍal and Al-Laith (no. 1207). (Hasan)

Commentary
1. Combining prayers during journeys is established in the Sunnah.
2. Prayers may be combined in two ways. One way is to perform Zuhr and 'Aṣr prayers at Zuhr time, and then Maghrib and 'Ishā' prayers at Maghrib time. The other way is to perform Zuhr and 'Aṣr prayers at 'Aṣr time, then Maghrib and 'Ishā' prayers at 'Ishā' time.
