Is shortening and combining prayers permissible between Ta'if and Makkah?

The questioner : In her second question, this questioner says that she lives in Makkah and her father lives in Ta'if, and while going to him in Ta'if, she shortens and combines the prayers. Is that permissible for her?

The Shaykh : Yes, there is nothing wrong with shortening the prayer. As for combining, she should not combine unless she is in need of combining.

The questioner : I stay with him for a few days. Yes, the duration, O Shaykh, she says a few days.

The Shaykh : There is no harm, there is no harm.

The questioner : In my prayer. Repeat the answer, O Shaykh?

The Shaykh : I am saying, is a duration of any length permissible, whether long or short? Long or short?

The presenter : May Allah reward you with good, and thank you to the sister questioner, and we have a call with us, thank you.
