Travelling Between Two Places Which Are Less Than four Farsakhs Apart
Issue No.1124- If a person travels several times back and forth between two places which are less than four farsakhs apart, the prayer should not be shortened, even if the total distance covered by him may add up to eight farsakhs or more. However, if he is considered as a traveller by common understanding (‘urf), he should as an obligatory precaution offer both the complete prayer as well as the qaṣr (shortened) prayer.
