The Traveler Who Did Not Specify the Duration of Stay

Question
A lady came from Saudi Arabia to her family's house in Jordan and did not specify the duration of her stay. Is it permissible for her to combine and shorten the prayers knowing that she has been residing in Jordan for ten days?
Answer
I say, and with God's help: As long as you intended to stay for fifteen days or more, shortening the prayer is not permitted; because you are a resident, and a resident does not take the concessions of travel. If you did not intend that, then you must shorten the prayer, and God knows best.
