Prayer is the pillar of faith, and delaying it past its prescribed time is a grave sin, which some scholars consider to be akin to disbelief. It is not permissible to delay the Dhuhr and Asr prayers until the time of Maghrib; rather, every prayer must be performed at its appointed time. The Dhuhr and Asr prayers can be combined, either by advancing the latter or delaying the former, when there is a need to do so.
