The Ruling on Shortening and Combining Prayers for a Traveler Studying Abroad
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
This questioner is studying abroad and says: What is the ruling on my shortening the prayer and combining prayers while I am studying outside the country?
Answer:
If you are staying for more than four days and you know that you will stay for a long period, then it is not permissible for you to shorten or combine the prayers; because you are not a traveler. The state of travel is broken by a long stay, just as if you were in your own country. You complete the prayer and fast Ramadan, and you are considered a resident. Yes.
