The ruling on combining and shortening prayers upon arrival at the place of residence
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, if I am traveling and then I arrive at my city, is it permissible for me to combine and shorten the prayers upon arrival? No, if you have arrived at your city, which is your place of residence, it has ended.
Answer:
And the shortening and combining have ended. However, if you are traveling away from this city with a final departure and you do not expect to return to it in the future, meaning you have no intention of returning to it or moving there in the future, then there is no harm if you come while you are a traveler, because it is no longer your city. But if it is your city, and you went to another city for work, even if the work is long, but your intention is not to settle in the city of work? Your intention is to settle in your original city, such that if the work ends, you return to your city, then this does not apply if you are in your city. Yes.
