Question

I want to ask a question about Qasar Namaz. I own a house in one state where my wife still lives. I live on weekdays for work in different state ( 350 miles away). I am renting apartment in the other state. I am come back to my family on weekends. My question is, do I need to pray qasar namaz on one of those places? if Yes then which one. Or do I need to pray full on both places.

Answer

In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.

As-salāmu ‘alaykum wa-rahmatullāhi wa-barakātuh.

You will have to make Qasar when you are at your work place and perform full Salah when you return home.[1]

And Allah Ta’āla Knows Best
