The traveler shortening the prayer when he follows a voluntary prayer

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, if a traveler completes the prayer behind someone performing a voluntary prayer, does he shorten the prayer or is he required to complete it?

The Shaykh:
If he completes it.

The questioner:
A traveler followed someone performing a voluntary prayer.

The Shaykh:
No, if the one performing the voluntary prayer is not praying four units, the one performing the voluntary prayer prays two units, there is no harm in praying two units behind him; because he will pray two units. Yes.

The questioner:
That is all, Shaykh.

The Shaykh:
And Allah the Exalted knows best, and may Allah send blessings and peace upon our Prophet Muhammad, and upon his family and his Companions.
