Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: We are a group of young men who were assigned to an area about three hundred kilometers from the residence where we were living, for the purpose of teaching. We were assigned to reside there for one year. However, this period may be extended for reasons beyond our control. Do we shorten the prayer during this period or not?
Answer:
No, shortening the prayer is not permissible because you are residents. If you intend to stay for more than four days, the state of travel is broken, and you perform the acts of worship in full, as you did in the city. Yes.
The presenter:
May Allah bless you,
