Question:
What is the distance for shortening the prayer for a traveler?
Answer:
The scholars have differed on this, and the majority of the people of knowledge hold that the distance for shortening the prayer is eighty kilometers, which is two days of travel for a mount. Some of them say three days for a mount. This is the basis for the estimation, due to the saying of the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him)Sahih al-Bukhari 1088 two days, and in another narration three days, and in another narration that one travels without mentioning days. This indicates that travel has a distance of two or three days.
