Arabic vocabulary
فَرِيضَتَيْن is how you say “two obligations” in Arabic. Hear it pronounced and see it used in a real example sentence from classical texts below.
أمّا الجمعُ بين فريضتين فليس بجائز
As for combining two obligatory prayers, it is not permissible.
فَرِيضَتَيْنِ — two obligatory prayers. The dual ending '-ayn' folds 'exactly two' into the noun: 'two obligatory prayers,' the -ayn being the form after a preposition. No separate word for 'two' — the count rides inside the word. Joining THESE under one tayammum is what is barred.
