Ruling on utilizing the dispensations of travel for one who travels daily
Machine translationRead the Arabic original

We are three people who travel daily (70 km), and on exam days we return and the midday prayer time catches us before we reach the town. Is it permissible for us to shorten the prayer or not?
If you travel daily (70 km), then you are not considered travelers; because a traveler is one who carries provisions and prepares for a journey, and such a short duration over a short distance does not reach the distance specified by the majority of scholars. Therefore, you are not travelers, but you must complete the prayer and not combine them.
