10- A person who is committed to a job in a place outside his homeland and he is always compelled to go and return back from the work center to his home covering the shari distance, what is his duty at home, at the traveling way or at his place of work? A: The ruling here is that of work in traveling, i.e. salat should be full and sawm is correct.

11- One whose job is traveling in such a way that he might stay at home for twenty days and at his work place for some days, like that of the mujahidin, then what is the ruling concerning his salat and sawm? A: In the given question, he should pray full salat and fast in his work place as long as he is intending to reside there for 10 days, otherwise he should pray qasr and break fasting. 12- Some of the mujahidin have no specific time for their duties i.e.

sometimes they stay in the battle-field for three days to return home and stay for fifteen days and, then, they go again to the battle-field for 3 days or sometimes 10 days or more and return home again and stay for 10 days or more. What is the ruling regarding their salat and sawm? A: The standard is what was mentioned i.e. if his travel was for work, after he had stayed for 10 days in a place, he should pray qasr on the first journey, unless he intended to stay for 10 days in the work place.

While if he traveled without separating his two journeys with a 10 days stay, he should pray full and fast. 13- His Eminence, the Leader of the Muslims Ayatullah al-dhma Sayyid Ali Khamenei (m.): There is a group of the brothers in Lebanon who have devoted themselves to the work with the Islamic Opposition Movements. The nature of their job is that it does not have a specific place, time or program.

They are compelled to move about from one place to another and to be always ready to be present and act in certain places where they are requested, in certain places in which they may stay for 1 day or more according to the conditions. According to this type of work, what is the ruling regarding their salat and sawm? What is the ruling regarding those who have newly joined such a work?

A: If the work in the Islamic Opposition Movements is considered conventionally as a work or job and it requires frequent traveling here and there, then as long as there is no separating period of 10 days stay, in a single place, between the two journeys, they should pray their full salat and fast.
