Question Summary:
Will I become a musafir if I travel 91 kilometres and come back home once a week? Question Detail:
I am going to work in a hospital that is 91 kilometers away from the family home, and I will stay there for 5 days a week and come back home every week-ends, for a duration of 6 months insha'Allah. The room and food will be kind of offered to me so in my mind my real home is the family house which I've been living for years.
My question is whether I will have to shorten my prayers during the 5 working days when I'm in the hospital, or should I shorten when I get back home on week-ends or I shorten no prayers ? Kindly clarify this issue for my case.
Answer :
In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.
As-salāmu ‘alaykum wa-rahmatullāhi wa-barakātuh.
You will have to make Qasar (shorten your prayers) when you are at your work place and perform full Salah when you return home. [1]
