Prayers: Shorter prayers during
travel
Q489 :Is it obligatory to shorten ones prayers
during travel?
A489 : A traveller is strongly recommended to
shorten his Dhur, Asr and Isha prayers to two raka'ahs each, because
this is in line with what the Prophet has taught us. We do it not
because prayers become a burden during travel; they do not. We do it
praising Allah for the concession as an exercise of strength, not
weakness. This is the proper attitude.
