Is it permissible to combine and shorten prayers for one who has reached his country but is still 25 kilometers from his home?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you. The questioner says: When I was returning from Makkah, the Maghrib prayer caught me at the first station at the beginning of Ta'if, where I was still twenty-five kilometers from my house. So I prayed Maghrib and then joined the congregation for the 'Isha' prayer. Is my action correct?

Answer:
The shortening has ended, as long as you have entered the buildings of Ta'if and the boundaries of Ta'if, the shortening is over. If you prayed with the congregation and completed the prayer, your prayer is valid, if Allah wills.
