Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
What is the ruling on the one who prayed the midday prayer today in four rak'ahs and prayed the afternoon prayer shortened in two rak'ahs?

Answer:
His prayer is valid, if Allah wills, but praying four rak'ahs is contrary to the Sunnah; the Sunnah is to shorten the prayer, but his prayer is valid, yes.
