Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
This questioner says: I am a Yemeni resident in Jeddah, and I am going to Yemen for the purpose of visiting and working, and I intend to stay there for a month.
The Shaykh:
He says: I am.
The questioner:
He says: I am a Yemeni.
The Shaykh:
Hmm.
The questioner:
I am a resident in Jeddah and I am going to Yemen for the purpose of visiting and working, and I intend to stay there for about a month. Do I shorten the prayer or complete it?
The Shaykh:
My brother, if you go to your country, the state of travel ends. When you arrive in your country, the travel ends. The travel is only between your country and Riyadh, going and returning. As for your residence in Riyadh for work, or your residence with your family in Yemen, you are not a traveler, neither in Yemen nor in Riyadh. You are only a traveler on the road, going and returning. Yes.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you with good,
