Question:
Is it obligatory for a traveler to pray the regular voluntary prayers (rawatib)?
Answer:
No. If a traveler shortens his prayer, he does not pray the regular voluntary prayers (rawatib) except for the regular voluntary prayer of Fajr. He does not leave the regular voluntary prayer of Fajr, whether he is resident or traveling. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) did not leave the regular voluntary prayer of Fajr, whether he was resident or traveling. As for the rest of the regular voluntary prayers, if he is shortening his prayer, he does not pray them, but he prays other voluntary prayers.
