Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, the scholars mentioned that the minimum distance is specifically eighty kilometers. But if the travel is, for example, to an island in the sea and the distance does not exceed forty kilometers, yet the people do not reach it until after five hours, then we intend that and agree.
Answer:
No, the criterion is the distance. If it is eighty kilometers or more, it is a distance for shortening the prayer because it is a two-day journey for a mount. As for if it is less than eighty kilometers, shortening the prayer is not permissible because it is less than two days. Yes. Even if there is hardship, pray every prayer in its exact time; because he is in the ruling of a resident. Yes.
