The Ruling on Shortening and Combining Prayers Between Riyadh and al-Kharj
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you. This questioner says: We are residents of Riyadh, and we work in al-Kharj. Is it permissible for us to combine and shorten the prayers on our trips from Riyadh to al-Kharj and back?
Answer:
The distance between al-Kharj and Riyadh no longer qualifies as a distance for shortening the prayer, because the end of the buildings in Riyadh and the beginning of the buildings in al-Kharj are about eighty kilometers apart, so there is no longer a distance for shortening.
