If a traveler arrives in his town and he has a prayer due, does he complete it?

The questioner : Yes, that is fine. Shaykh, I once traveled and the time for prayer came while I was still traveling, but I did not pray. I delayed it until I entered my town, my town of residence. Do I shorten the prayer or complete it, Shaykh?

The Shaykh : No.

The questioner : We complete it.

The Shaykh : Yes, because the criterion is

The questioner : Yes.

The Shaykh : the performance of the prayer.

The questioner : Yes.

The Shaykh : If the time enters and you are traveling, and you have reached your town, pray four rak'ahs. And if the adhan is called and you are in the town, and you travel, and you leave the town, pray two rak'ahs.

The questioner : We pray two rak'ahs. Yes, that is fine. Shaykh, there are prayers that I prayed shortened, Shaykh.

The Shaykh : Right after I reached my town.

The questioner : The towns were connected.

The Shaykh : Count them and make them up.

The questioner : And if I do not know the number, Shaykh.

The Shaykh : Do not speculate.

The questioner : I should estimate. May Allah reward you, Shaykh. May Allah reward you with good.

The Shaykh : May Allah greet you.
