Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Mas’ud (may Allah be pleased with him) says: I have only seen that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) performed every prayer at its prescribed time, except for two prayers; he combined Maghrib and ‘Isha at the place of Muzdalifah, and on that day he performed the Fajr prayer before its time. In the narration of Ibn Numayr, instead of the words "two prayers" (صَلَاتَیْن), the words "the two ‘Isha prayers" (الْعِشَائَیْنِ) are used; the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) combined and performed these two prayers at Muzdalifah.
