Shortening and completing the prayer alternately for one who stays less than four days

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. The questioner says: If one stays in a city for less than four days, is it permissible for him to shorten the prayer one day and complete it another day?

Answer:
Both shortening and completing the prayer are permissible for the traveler, and shortening is better for him; because he takes the dispensation and does not burden himself.
