Musaafir staying in one place for 20 days but travelling to other places during the day

· 28 Muharram 1447 AH1 min readEnglish

Question

I plan on travelling for holiday oversees for 20 days. I will be staying by family in a city but I will be travelling to other cities as well during the 20 days. Should I read qasr salaah or full salaah?

Answer

If you are going to spend the 20 nights in one town and travel to nearby towns during the day and they are not at a safar distance then you will read full salaah.

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