Question:

Answer:
Answer: This is not permissible. He should pray it and intend it as the midday prayer, and he should pray it as two rak'ahs, as long as he is a traveler, on Friday and on other days. Pray the four-rak'ah prayer as two rak'ahs. [And Allah said:] “And when you travel through the land, there is no sin upon you to shorten the prayer if you fear that those who disbelieve will fitnah you.” They said: “O Messenger of Allah, how do we shorten it when we are safe?” Meaning, the fear has gone. He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: “It is a charity that Allah has bestowed upon you, so accept His charity.”
