The Duration of Shortening for the Traveler
A person from Zarqa works in the Ghor, staying there from Sunday to Thursday, and returns to Zarqa on Thursday evening to stay until Sunday. What is the duration of combining and shortening for him on his way there and back?
Answer
I say, and with God's help: It is not permissible for him to shorten the prayer unless the distance exceeds (80) kilometers, and God knows best.
