The ruling on taking the dispensations of travel to the airport
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, it is well known that a traveler begins with the virtue of travel when he leaves his home in his land. This is regarding the traveler in general, so what about the traveler’s situation with regard to his wife?
Answer:
If the airport is outside the town, he may take the dispensations of travel to the airport if it is outside the built-up area. However, if the airport is within the built-up area, he does not take the rulings of travel; he completes the prayer and continues fasting until the plane takes off. Once the plane takes off and leaves the town’s perimeter, the dispensations of travel begin to apply to him.
