Chapter on the Prayer During Travel

From him, from Ibrahim from al-Barqi from Sulayman ibn Ja’far al-Ja’fari from Musa ibn Hamzah ibn Baziy', who said: I said to Abu al-Hasan عليه السلام, peace be upon him: “May I be your ransom, I have an estate before reaching Baghdad. I set out from Kufah, intending to go onwards to Baghdad, but I stay in that estate. Should I shorten or complete (the prayer)?” Imam عليه السلام said: “If you do not intend to stay for ten (days), then shorten (the prayers).”
