The Ruling on Travel and the Time When Its Dispensations Begin
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
The Shaykh says: When do women resort to the ruling of travel? That is, when they leave the built-up area? Or when they travel?
The Shaykh:
The calculation of travel begins when the traveler leaves the town, specifically the built-up area of the town. Once he leaves the built-up area, the dispensations apply to him: he is permitted to break his fast and he is permitted to shorten the prayer. He shortens the prayer because he has left the built-up area. As long as he remains in the town, he is not considered a traveler; he is not counted as a traveler. If he walks from his home as a traveler to Makkah, the rulings of travel do not apply to him until he leaves the buildings of Riyadh. He must leave all the buildings behind him. Only then does the state of travel begin. As long as he is moving through the streets of Riyadh, leaving his home, he still has the ruling of a resident.
The presenter:
He says to them: Go. Yes.
The questioner:
He is from Gaza.
The Shaykh:
Whoever says: When the shadow of the town’s wall appears to him, the dispensations begin, because he is then called a traveler. Yes.
