The Ruling on Shortening the Prayer for One Who Stays in Makkah for Five Days
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: I traveled to Makkah for five days to cut my work, and during these days I shortened the prayer. What is the ruling on my action?
Answer:
If you knew that you would stay for five days, then it is not permissible for you to shorten the prayer during this period that you stayed in Makkah or elsewhere. A traveler who intends to stay during his journey for more than four days, whether in a town or in the desert, must complete the prayer, because the state of travel is broken by this stay. Yes.
The presenter:
Yes, may Allah bless you.
