We traveled and stayed in the city for less than three days, so my colleagues criticized me for praying the congregational prayer in the mosque?

Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: I traveled with my colleagues and stayed in the city we traveled to for less than three days. My colleagues would combine and shorten the prayers at our place of residence inside the lodging, whereas I used to pray the prayers in the mosque without combining them. They criticized me for this action because I did not take the dispensation that Allah loves, and I said that I am acting according to what is best. Is the best my action or their action?

Answer:
You are the one who is correct, and they are mistaken. Acting according to the dispensation is that you go to the mosque. The saying of the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) This includes travelers and others. They hear the call while they are descending from the side of the mosque and do not go to the mosque to pray. This is a mistake, yes. And he has a dispensation for this. This is abandoning the obligatory, yes.
