Question
A Hanafi Maulana advised that Salaat be combined before boarding the plane. Neither will there be valid Salaat time nor proper Salaat facilities in the plane. Is this correct?
Answer
Combining two Salaat in the time of one Salaat is not valid according to the Hanafi Math-hab. Nevertheless, those travelling by plane may combine Zuhr and Asr, Maghrib and Isha, on land as the Shaafis do. Then, on the plane they should repeat the Salaat in its proper time. On landing, they should repeat all the Salaat which they had performed on the plane.
