Question
There are several Ahaadith which indicate the permissibility of combining two Salaat. Please comment and explain these Hadith narrations.
Answer
We are not Mujtahids. We are Muqallids of the Hanafi Math-hab. Imaam Abu Hanifah (rahmatullah alayh) and the thousands of Hanafi Fuqaha were well aware of the Ahaadith which you have quoted. The issue of the impermissibility of combining two Salaat was decided and concluded almost 14 hundred years ago. Those who are today, 14 centuries after the event, raking up nonsensical arguments are juhala. According to the Hanafi Math-hab, Jama' Bainas Salaatain is not permissible.
