Is shortening and combining prayers permissible during a leisure trip?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
If we are on a leisure trip for one or two days, is it permissible for us to shorten and combine the prayers?

Answer:
If you are traveling a distance that allows for shortening, eighty kilometers or more, and you do not stay for more than four days, then you may shorten the prayers. As for combining, that is only done while traveling on the road. If you are staying, you pray each prayer in its time, shortened, without combining. And if there is a mosque where the congregation is held, pray with the congregation and complete the prayer with the congregation.
