The ruling on shortening the prayer for the traveler and its duration

Question:
We are coming from distant lands, and then we stopped in Riyadh. Are we considered travelers to whom the rulings of travel apply, or are we considered residents?

Answer:
If a traveler stops in a town and intends to stay for more than four days, he is considered a resident. He prays four rak'ahs and does not combine prayers if his intention is to stay for more than four days and nights. This is the position of the majority of scholars.
As for if he stops with the intention of staying only one day, two days, or three days, he is a traveler. Or if he is not certain, not knowing when he will travel, not knowing if he will travel tomorrow or the day after, seeking a need that he does not know when he will fulfill, or pursuing an opponent who is seeking him, or similar needs that he does not know when they will end, then his ruling is the ruling of travelers, even if he lives there for a year as long as he has this intention.

Question: ...

Answer: If there is one person, it is obligatory for him to pray with the congregation. If there are two or more, they have the choice: if they pray shortened, two rak'ahs, there is no harm; and if they pray with the people, they pray four rak'ahs. But if there is only one person, that one person prays with the people and does not leave the congregation.
