The ruling on shortening the prayer between Makkah and Jeddah

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
We return to the questions that have come in to the program. This is Abu Khalid from Jeddah, and he says: What is the ruling on shortening the prayer between Makkah and Jeddah? Is the shortening based on the intention of travel, or from the end of the built-up area? And what is the evidence from the Book and the Sunnah?

Answer:
There is no shortening between Makkah and Jeddah, because there is no longer a distance for shortening between them, as they are now close together, so the distance for shortening no longer exists between them. Therefore, shortening is not permissible; rather, the prayer must be completed in full. Yes.
