Man Lā Yaḥḍuruh al-Faqīh|Volume 1|Book 1|Chapter 59
وَ سَأَلَ إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ عَمَّارٍ أَبَا إِبْرَاهِيمَ مُوسَى بْنَ جَعْفَرٍ عَلَيْهِمَا اَلسَّلاَمُ: فِي اَلرَّجُلِ يَكُونُ مُسَافِراً ثُمَّ يَقْدَمُ فَيَدْخُلُ بُيُوتَ اَلْكُوفَةِ أَ يُتِمُّ اَلصَّلاَةَ أَمْ يَكُونُ مُقَصِّراً حَتَّى يَدْخُلَ إِلَى أَهْلِهِ قَالَ «بَلْ يَكُونُ مُقَصِّراً حَتَّى يَدْخُلَ إِلَى أَهْلِهِ.
Ishaq ibn Ammar asked Abu Ibrahim Imam Musa ibn Jafar Al-Kadhim عليه السلام about a man who is traveling and then arrives, entering the boundaries of Kufa. He asked: "Should he perform the full prayer or continue to shorten it until he enters his home?" Imam عليه السلام said: "Rather, he should continue to shorten it until he enters his home”.
