Shortening the Prayer and Combining Prayers for the Traveler Who Stops and the One Who Is on the Move

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
And we say that, we come with the presence of the garden, on the condition that it does not continue until we continue in the presence of the two imams, and we differ regarding the first obligatory prayer and the imam of the prayer, so either he sees the Friday prayer on the pressure, or he sees the pressure, or he sees the beneficial one on the ground.

Answer:
The traveler who intends a distance of more than eighty kilometers shortens the prayer, but if he is on the road, traveling along the way, he shortens and combines, if something urgent arises for him.
As for if he stops in the desert for rest or to attend to a need he must fulfill, and his stay is less than four days, he shortens without combining; he prays every prayer in its time, shortened, without combining. This is because the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) stayed in Mina for the days of Tashriq; he stayed in Mina for the days of Tashriq, the tenth, eleventh, twelfth, and thirteenth days, shortening the prayer and praying every prayer in its time. Whereas he was in 'Arafah and Muzdalifah, he combined and shortened because it was urgent for him, and likewise the duration of his stay in al-Abtah before the fourth day; he stayed in al-Abtah until the day of Tashriq, shortening the prayer but not combining; he prays every prayer in its time.
If the traveler is stopped, he shortens without combining, and if he is on the move, he combines and shortens. Yes.
