Ruling on shortening the prayer for a traveler for the purpose of study

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Is a person traveling to European countries for the purpose of study permitted to shorten the prayer?

Answer:
If he resides there for a long period, he does not shorten the prayer, because the state of travel is ended by a long stay. Therefore, it is not permissible for him to pray the prayer of a resident; he must complete the prayer, performing each prayer in its time, because he is a resident with a long stay. Yes.
