Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) says: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) combined the Zuhr and Asr, and Maghrib and Isha prayers and offered them together. When he was asked about the reason, he said: "I have offered these prayers in this manner so that my Ummah does not fall into hardship."

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Mu'adh bin Jabal (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) was on the expedition of Tabuk. If they set out before the sun had declined, he would delay the Zuhr prayer until he combined it with Asr, and he would perform both together. And if they started the journey after the sun had declined, he would perform Asr along with Zuhr and then begin the journey. Similarly, if they set out before sunset, he would delay Maghrib until he performed it with Isha, and if they started the journey after sunset, he would hasten the Isha prayer and perform it together with Maghrib.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Sa'id (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) would combine two prayers while on a journey.

Qaboos narrates from his father that his father sent a woman to Sayyidah Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) so that she could ask her which prayer the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) liked to perform regularly. She said: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) used to pray four rak'ahs before the Zuhr prayer, in which he would stand for a long time and perform bowing and prostration in a good manner, and whether he was healthy or ill, and whether he was traveling or at home, he would never abandon the two Sunnah rak'ahs of Fajr.

Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Sa’ib (may Allah be pleased with him) says: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) used to pray four rak‘ahs after the sun had passed its zenith and before the Zuhr prayer, and he would say:“At this time, the gates of the heavens are opened, and I wish that a righteous deed of mine be raised up.”

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Sa'id Khudri (may Allah be pleased with him), he states that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: "Indeed, Allah the Exalted has granted you another prayer, which is better for you than red camels. Be aware that this prayer is the two Sunnah (units) before the Fajr prayer."
