The traveler shortening the prayer behind a resident who is praying Maghrib

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. If a traveler prays behind a resident who is praying Maghrib, and the traveler is going to pray 'Isha', is he allowed to shorten the prayer?

Answer:
No, he does not shorten it unless the imam is shortening it. If the imam is not shortening it, he follows his imam. This will be discussed in the next chapter, if Allah wills.
