Ruling on shortening the prayer with the intention of staying
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you. This questioner says: I am going to travel and stay for a week or more. Is it permissible for me to shorten and combine the prayers? May Allah bless you.
Answer:
No, you do not combine or shorten if you intend to stay for more than four days. If you intend to stay for more than four days, then the state of travel has ended for you, so you pray the prayer of a resident, not the prayer of a traveler. You complete the prayer, and every prayer is performed in its proper time. Yes.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you and benefit through you.
