Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
A questioner says: My workplace is about one hundred kilometers from my village, and I stay in that village for three days. So I shorten the Zuhr and 'Asr prayers, and I also combine the Maghrib and 'Isha' prayers. Is this permissible?
Answer:
If you stay for a long period, you may not shorten or combine. That is, if you stay for three days or more, it is not permissible for you to shorten or combine. If your stay is less than three days and you have not intended a permanent stay, it is permissible for you to shorten and combine. Yes.
