The ruling on considering the distance to al-Kharj as travel
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, does the frequent travel from Riyadh to the city of al-Kharj for the teachers count as a distance for shortening the prayer? It is necessary for them to have a mahram, knowing that they are a group of women?
Answer:
If the distance between the built-up area of Riyadh and the built-up area of al-Kharj is eighty kilometers, this is considered travel. But if the built-up area of al-Kharj is close to the built-up area of Riyadh and there is no longer a distance of eighty kilometers between them, this is not considered travel.
