Question:
Thank you to the questioner. This questioner also says: Honorable Shaykh, is it permissible for me to combine and shorten the prayers from al-Zulfi to al-Majma'ah? And what is the criterion for that? May you be rewarded.
Answer:
If the distance between the inhabited areas of the two towns is eighty kilometers, you may shorten and combine the prayers on the way. However, if the distance between the inhabited areas of the two towns is less than eighty kilometers, you may not shorten or combine, because this is not a travel distance. Yes.
