Question:
This man is asking. He says he is sick, he is sick, and he is in Makkah. He combined the two prayers because of his illness, and he shortened them, what Allah willed, he shortened them.
Answer:
This is not permissible. Shortening is for the traveler, not for the sick person. Shortening is for the traveler. As for the sick person who is in his home town, he only combines, he does not shorten. So you must repeat the prayer. You have to repeat the two prayers. Yes.
