Hanafi combining salaahs on a journey

Question

Can one observe the Shafee madhab when traveling? Especially by plane when the flights are long and one will miss the salaah completely.

Answer

You may delay the first salaah to the end of its time and perform the next salaah at the beginning of its time. In this way you could combine the two salaahs.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
