But the other mosque 5 minutes away from it doesn’t combine (they are both shafi’i madhhab). I have been told by the imam that (combines maghrib and isha) this is permissible for everyone, even if you do not have work in the morning or something. Can you please tell me the rulings on this because I am confused,
