Does one who goes to study in a region and stays there from Saturday to Wednesday for four years shorten the prayer?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : Shaykh, many of the brothers, O Shaykh, ask about this. They are students studying in al-Ahsa. They leave on Saturday after the Fajr prayer and return on Wednesday around the 'Asr prayer. They are studying for four years. Do they shorten their prayers during their stay in al-Ahsa from Saturday to Wednesday?

The Shaykh : No, they do not shorten them.

The questioner : They do not shorten them.

The Shaykh : These people have agreed to reside there, so it is not permissible for them to shorten the prayer; they are residents.
