27. Likewise, offer two Rak’āt Nafl Ṣalāĥ after reaching home
(provided the time is not Makrūĥ for Ṣalāĥ).
28. Then meet everyone warmly.
For detailed information, study from page 1051 to 1066 of the
6 th part of Baĥār-e-Sharī’at (volume-1) and from page 726 to
731 of the referenced Fatāwā Razawiyyaĥ (volume-10).
6 Madanī pearls of offering Ṣalāĥ during journey
1. By Sharī’aĥ, the person who has been out of his staying place,
i.e. his city or village with the intention of travelling at least
57.5 miles (i.e. almost 92 kilometres) is considered a traveller.
2. On reaching the destination, if one intends to stay over there for
15 days or more, he will not be regarded a traveller by Sharī’aĥ.
Instead, he will now be considered a Muqīm (resident). In this
case, he will not offer Qaṣr Ṣalāĥ (shortened Ṣalāĥ where 4
Farḍ Rak’āt are reduced to 2). There is no reduction in the Farḍ
Ṣalāĥ of Fajr and Maghrib. Likewise, Sunnaĥ and Witr Ṣalāĥ
will also be offered as usual without any reduction.
3. A large number of Ḥujjāj reach Makka-tul-Mukarramaĥ in
Shawwāl-ul-Mukarram and Żul-Qa’daĥ whereas many days are
still left in the commencement of Hajj. After some days they
are shifted to Madīna-tul-Munawwaraĥ for almost nine days.
In this case, they stay as travellers in Madīna-tul-Munawwaraĥ;
in fact, they also stay as travellers in Makka-tul-Mukarramaĥ
because they have to stay for less than 15 days. However, if
anyone gets a chance to stay in Makkaĥ or Madīnaĥ for 15 days
or more, his intention of stay is correct.
