Question

My question is that b4 a musaafir returns to his home ,he stops at a relatives place but within the boundries of his town...can he make qasar?.. wslm

Answer

In the name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful

Assalaamu `alaykum waRahmatullahi Wabarakatuh

When a Musaafir returns home from a journey, the moment he enters the boundary of his home town or city, the obligation of performing Qasar Salaah terminates, whether or not he reached his own home.

And Allah knows best
