[Machine] "That the Messenger of Allah ﷺ gathered in a meal that he undertook during a battle between Dhuhr and Asr and Maghrib and Isha. So I asked him, what led him to do that? He said, he intended not to burden his nation."  

ابن حبّان:١٥٩١أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ الْأَزْدِيُّ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ قَالَ أَخْبَرَنَا النَّضْرُ بْنُ شُمَيْلٍ وَأَبُو عَامِرٍ الْعَقَدِيُّ قَالَا حَدَّثَنَا قُرَّةُ بْنُ خَالِدٍ السَّدُوسِيُّ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الزُّبَيْرِ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الطُّفَيْلِ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا مُعَاذُ بْنُ جَبَلٍ

«أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ جَمَعَ فِي سَفْرَةٍ سَافَرَهَا وَذَلِكَ فِي غَزْوَةٍ بَيْنَ الظُّهْرِ وَالْعَصْرِ وَالْمَغْرِبِ وَالْعِشَاءِ» فَقُلْتُ لَهُ فَمَا حَمَلَهُ عَلَى ذَلِكَ؟ قَالَ أَرَادَ أَنْ لَا يُحْرِجَ أُمَّتَهُ

The Messenger of Allah ﷺ combined in the expedition to Tabuk the noon prayer with the afternoon prayer and the sunset prayer with the 'Isha' prayer. He (one of the narrators) said: What prompted him to do that? He (Mu'adh) replied that he (the Holy Prophet) wanted that his Ummah should not be put to (unnecessary) hardship.

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ went on a journey, which was the expedition of Tabuk. He combined the prayers of Dhuhr, Asr, Maghrib, and Isha. I asked, "What made him do that?" He said, "He wanted to make it easier for his ummah."
