The Ruling on Combining and Shortening Prayers for One Who Travels Frequently

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you. This is Shaykh Salih, who says that he travels frequently between cities. Does he have the right to shorten the prayers, and does he pray the regular voluntary prayers while traveling?

Answer:
Yes. If the distance between the place he departs from and the place he is traveling to is the distance for shortening, which is eighty kilometers or more, then he may shorten and combine the prayers while on the road. However, if the distance is less than eighty kilometers, he does not combine or shorten, because this is not considered travel. Yes.
