Summary
In jamak takhir, performing the two prayers in order is only recommended and is not obligatory. A person may begin with either the first or the second prayer, and both prayers remain valid. Order is required only in jamak taqdim, because the second prayer follows the first.
Written in our own words from the original fatwa — check the source before acting on it.
Susunan tertib solat di dalam solat jamak takhir adalah merupakan perkara sunat.
