The Meaning of the Limit of Tarakhus
Issue No.1155- The limit of tarakhuṣ means the point where one can no longer hear the adhān of the town and the people of the town do not see him. However, seeing or not seeing the walls of the city is not necessary, but there should not be dust nor fog or the like which prevent seeing, nor noise which prevents hearing. If either of these two signs are present, it will suffice, provided that one is not sure that the other one does not exist, otherwise one should, as an obligatory precaution, offer both complete as well as qaṣr prayer.
