Qasar Salaah: Balancing Work in Fort McMurray and Home in Calgary

Answered as per Hanafi Fiqh by Muftionline.co.za

Q: I work in Fort McMurray, Alberta and my home city is Calgary, Alberta, Canada. The road distance from Fort McMurray to Calgary is around 700KM and flight duration is little over an hour. I work for 10 days and then take 4 days off. In this condition, would my Salaah be qasar at Fort McMurray and full while I am at home for 4 days?

A: If your workplace is not your permanent home i.e. you do not have all your furniture equipment, wife and children etc. in that place as you would have it in your permanent home then you will not consider that as your permanent home.

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