When does the Asr window end?

Why is Asr particularly emphasized in the Qur'an?
Surah Al-Baqarah 2:238 says: "Guard strictly your prayers, especially the middle prayer." Many scholars identify this verse as referring to Asr, which falls in the middle of the working day when distractions are highest and missing the prayer is easiest.

On this same date one year ago, Asr in Al’met’yevsk was at 15:57 local time — identical to today's 15:57. Year-over-year drift is sometimes zero when the leap-year alignment cancels out the typical solar shift.
How many rakat is Asr prayer?

Can I delay Asr to combine with Maghrib?
