Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. Did the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) shorten the prayer in Mina and elsewhere for the sake of travel, or for the sake of Hajj? And do the people of Makkah shorten the prayer in this case?
Answer:
All of it is for the sake of Hajj and for the sake of travel. The people of Makkah performed Hajj with the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), and he did not order them to complete the prayer; he did not order them to complete the prayer. So the people of Makkah and others, when they perform Hajj, whether they combine or shorten, it is the same. Yes.
