The Ruling on Shortening the Prayer and Combining Prayers for One Who Works Two Consecutive Days
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
I work in a country other than my own, and my work lasts for two consecutive days, then I return to my country for two consecutive days, and so on. Is the shortened and combined prayer valid, or do I only shorten it?
Answer:
If you do not stay in the country of work for more than two days, it is permissible for you to shorten the prayer, but do not leave the congregation. Pray with the congregation of the country in the mosque, complete the prayer with them, and do not separate from them. Do not say, “I will shorten the prayer,” but pray with them and complete it.
