solat jamak: sampai ke destinasi sebelum masuk waktu solat kedua
Is a combined and shortened Zuhr and Asr prayer (jamak taqdim) still valid if I arrive at my destination before the time of Asr begins, and must I repeat the Asr prayer?
Short answer
The combined and shortened prayer already performed is valid and the prayer does not need to be repeated.

Summary
The combined and shortened prayer already performed is valid and the prayer does not need to be repeated. The fatwa cites a hadith forbidding the same obligatory prayer from being performed twice in one day. However, if a person arrives at a mosque and finds people praying an obligatory prayer in congregation, it is preferable for them to repeat it with the congregation as a voluntary prayer.
Written in our own words from the original fatwa — check the source before acting on it.
Sah solat jamak dan qasar yang dilakukan dan tidak wajib mengulangi solat.
