Can we join ‘Isha and Taraaweeh together with Maghrib in Ramadaan if it is raining?

Question: 11643

If it is raining at the time of Maghrib in Ramadaan, should we not join Maghrib and ‘Ishaa’, or can we join Maghrib and ‘Ishaa’ and delay Taraaweeh?

Answer

Praise be to Allah, and peace and blessings be upon the Messenger of Allah and his family.

We put this question to Shaykh ‘Abd al-‘Azeez ibn Baaz (may Allaah have mercy on him), who replied:

The matter is flexible, in sha Allaah. Putting the prayers together (in this case) may make the people miss out on a lot of benefits.

And Allaah knows best.
