Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, he says: Do the rulings for a traveler apply to one who comes to the Kingdom for the purpose of work, given that his period of work is predetermined to be one year?
Answer:
This is not a traveler; a traveler is one who is on the road going and returning. As for the time he stays in the Kingdom for work, whether for a year or more, he is a resident, not a traveler. He completes the prayer, fasts Ramadan, and follows the rulings of residents. Yes.
