Some questions regarding combining prayers while traveling:

1. For those who combine prayers while traveling (and scholars who give fatawa for same), what is the evidence they use?

2. Are there (and/or have there been) any prominent Hanafi scholars who have allowed combining of prayers while traveling?

3. Any other daleels in favor of the same (i.e. combining prayers).

By combining I mean (based on what I've seen):

- Pray 2 rakat Dhuhr within Dhuhr time, then 2 rakat 'Asr immediately after, and
- Pray 3 rakat Maghrib within Maghrib time, then 2 rakat Isha immediately after.

Please understand that I am not interesting in debates & evidences showing why combining prayers is not allowed, but rather I want to know what is the evidence used by those who say it is allowed. I ask because there are masses of people doing it in the world, including respected and prominent scholars, so there has to be some sort of proof behind it.

Also the evidence doesn't have to be according to a particular madhab... I am looking for any and every evidence used for combining prayers.


for the help.
