If we travel a distance of more than one hundred kilometers, do we shorten the prayer?

The questioner : ...do we shorten the prayer?

The Shaykh : ... ؟

Another questioner : We visited a brother of ours.

The Shaykh : I understood, I understood what you said. The last sentence?

Another questioner : Do we shorten the prayer?

The Shaykh : Do we shorten the prayer? This varies depending on the situation, because travel is not related solely to the distance a person covers, but also to his preparation, readiness, and provisioning. Travel is related to the customary definition of brevity; if the distance covered by one leaving his home is known to be travel, then it is travel, otherwise it is not. The determination of travel or non-travel is not based on covering a specific distance of one hundred kilometers, such that you, for example, are not a traveler, but if you cover one hundred and one kilometers, you become a traveler. There is nothing of the sort... rather, the issue is related to the prevailing, known custom, and this undoubtedly differs from one country to another.
