The ruling on shortening the prayer for one whose workplace is more than 100 km away

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you. If the distance between my workplace and my home is more than one hundred kilometers, is it permissible for me to shorten the prayer?

Answer:
If the distance between your workplace and the outskirts of your village or town—specifically, between the end of the built-up area of the town where you live and your place of work—is a distance that qualifies for shortening, then you may shorten the prayer. Yes, and you may combine the prayers. Yes, whether you are traveling to work or returning, you may do so.
