The ruling on combining prayers for one who travels one hundred kilometers
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He is one hundred kilometers from his home in his job, Honorable Shaykh. He says: May I combine the midday prayer with the afternoon prayer, and the sunset prayer with the night prayer?
Answer:
The criterion is not the house, my brother. The criterion is leaving the built-up area of the town. The distance begins from the built-up area, from leaving the built-up area of the town. As long as he is within the town, this is not counted as distance. So if the distance between the built-up area of the town and his workplace is eighty kilometers or more, then it is a distance for shortening the prayer. If it is less, then no. Yes.
