Question

When Must One Shorten Their Prayers While Traveling in Hanafi School?

Allah has granted us concessions during certain times, such as when traveling, by allowing us to shorten our prayers. Shaykh Abdul-Rahim will explain when and how to shorten these prayers and whether to perform the Sunna prayers in such circumstances.

Shaykh Abdul-Rahim Reasat pursued Arabic Grammar and Morphology alongside his English and History degree. Post-graduation, he deepened his studies in Damascus, learning Arabic, Hanafi Fiqh, Theology, and more under notable scholars like Shaykh Adnan Darwish and Shaykh Rashad Shams. He continued in Amman, expanding into Tafsir, Hadith, Prophetic Biography, and other Islamic sciences, guided by teachers such as Shaykh Ali Hani and Dr. Hamza al-Bakri.
