The ruling on repeating the prayer for one who combined and shortened, then intended to stay

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you. We conclude with the last question from the questioner, Iman from Riyadh, who says: If a traveler shortens and combines the Dhuhr and 'Asr prayers when he arrives and settles in the city where he will stay for three weeks, is he required to repeat them?

Answer:
If he intends to stay for more than four days, it is not permissible for him to shorten or combine, because he has become a resident, the state of travel has ended, and it is over. So he has to repeat the prayer. Even if some scholars hold that he is still a traveler, the majority of the scholars of knowledge hold that the travel has ended. If he repeats the prayers he performed by shortening or combining, he will have cleared his conscience.
