If one is studying in a town that is more than 77kms away from his home town, stays there from Sunday till the following Friday, then returns home on Friday and goes back on Sunday, and continues in this manner throughout the course of the semester, should he perform qasar Salaah or full Salaah?

Answer

If he performs salaah alone or behind a musaafir, he will perform qasar.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
