The Ruling on Shortening the Prayer in the Country of Residence

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner, Abu Muhammad, says: I live in Riyadh, and I sometimes go to al-Qassim to visit my family, staying there for two or three days in my own room. Do I have the right to shorten the prayer?

Answer:
No, this is your country, so you do not have the right to shorten the prayer. Nor is it permissible for a person in a state of major ritual impurity to pray in the mosques with the Muslims. Yes.
