Question:
The shortening of the prayer by the traveler, and the situation upon returning from travel, and the time for that?

Answer:
If a traveler’s journey is eighty kilometers or more, meaning two stages of forty kilometers each, then he may shorten the prayer. Yes, unless he returns to his hometown, or unless he intends to stay for more than four days during his journey. In that case, the state of travel is broken, and he must complete the prayer for that period. Yes.
