Combining Two Prayers Before the Time of One Has Arrived

Question
A man prayed Dhuhr and Asr with the intention of combining them for a delay, then it became clear to him that the time for Asr had not yet arrived. Should he repeat the prayer?
Answer
I say, and with God's help: Every prayer must be performed on time; if one prays before the time enters, they must repeat it, and God knows best.
