The Ruling on Shortening Prayers for the Sick and the Doctor
Is it permissible for the sick person to combine and shorten prayers? What type of illness allows for combining and shortening? Can the surgeon combine and shorten prayers?
Answer
I say, and with God's help: illness is not an excuse for combining and shortening prayers, and God knows best.
