حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو سَلَمَةَ، يَحْيَى بْنُ خَلَفٍ الْبَصْرِيُّ حَدَّثَنَا الْمُعْتَمِرُ بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ حَنَشٍ، عَنْ عِكْرِمَةَ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ " مَنْ جَمَعَ بَيْنَ الصَّلاَتَيْنِ مِنْ غَيْرِ عُذْرٍ فَقَدْ أَتَى بَابًا مِنْ أَبْوَابِ الْكَبَائِرِ " . قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى وَحَنَشٌ هَذَا هُوَ أَبُو عَلِيٍّ الرَّحَبِيُّ وَهُوَ حُسَيْنُ بْنُ قَيْسٍ وَهُوَ ضَعِيفٌ عِنْدَ أَهْلِ الْحَدِيثِ ضَعَّفَهُ أَحْمَدُ وَغَيْرُهُ . وَالْعَمَلُ عَلَى هَذَا عِنْدَ أَهْلِ الْعِلْمِ أَنْ لاَ يَجْمَعَ بَيْنَ الصَّلاَتَيْنِ إِلاَّ فِي السَّفَرِ أَوْ بِعَرَفَةَ . وَرَخَّصَ بَعْضُ أَهْلِ الْعِلْمِ مِنَ التَّابِعِينَ فِي الْجَمْعِ بَيْنَ الصَّلاَتَيْنِ لِلْمَرِيضِ وَبِهِ يَقُولُ أَحْمَدُ وَإِسْحَاقُ . وَقَالَ بَعْضُ أَهْلِ الْعِلْمِ يَجْمَعُ بَيْنَ الصَّلاَتَيْنِ فِي الْمَطَرِ وَبِهِ يَقُولُ الشَّافِعِيُّ وَأَحْمَدُ وَإِسْحَاقُ . وَلَمْ يَرَ الشَّافِعِيُّ لِلْمَرِيضِ أَنْ يَجْمَعَ بَيْنَ الصَّلاَتَيْنِ .

Abū Salamah Yaḥyā ibn Khalaf al-Baṣrī narrated to us: al-Muʿtamir ibn Sulaymān narrated to us, from his father, from Ḥanash, from ʿIkrimah, from Ibn ʿAbbās, from the Prophet (ﷺ), who said: “Whoever combines two prayers without an excuse has entered through one of the gates of the major sins.” Abū ʿĪsā said: Ḥanash here is Abū ʿAlī al-Raḥabī, namely Ḥusayn ibn Qays. He is weak according to hadith scholars; Aḥmad and others regarded him as weak. The practice among scholars is not to combine two prayers except while traveling or at ʿArafah. Some scholars among the Successors allowed combining prayers for a sick person; Aḥmad and Isḥāq held this view. Some scholars allowed combining them because of rain; al-Shāfiʿī, Aḥmad, and Isḥāq held this view. Al-Shāfiʿī did not consider it permissible for a sick person to combine prayers.
