The Ruling on Shortening the Prayer with a Long Stay

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says that he will travel with his brother for treatment, and the doctors have estimated the treatment period to be six months. Does he shorten and combine the prayers?

Answer:
No. A stay exceeding four days during travel is not permissible to shorten the prayer in, nor to break the fast in Ramadan, because the state of travel is broken by this long stay. So he completes the prayer and fasts Ramadan during his stay while traveling, if it is a long stay. Yes.
