What is the ruling on the rawatib (regular voluntary prayers) for a traveler?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
If a traveler arrives in Makkah, is it better for him to leave off the rawatib, or to pray them?

Answer:
If his stay in Makkah is less than, or up to, four days, he limits himself to the obligatory prayers and does not pray the rawatib. But if he will stay in Makkah for more than four days, his state of travel is ended, and his ruling becomes that of a resident: he completes the prayer and performs the rawatib.
