The Watn Iqaamqh is not Nullified merely by Making the Intention of Safr

Q: Salaah-493: Coming from Surat, I made the intention to stay twenty days in Bombay and therefore made it my Watn lqaamah since I was staying more than fifteen days. I however completed my work early and decided to return. Should I perform Qasr when performing the salaahs I still have to perform in Bombay before departing?

Answer: The Watn lqaamah will not be nullified by merely changing one's intention but only when one actually embarks on the journey and leaves the Vicinity of Bombay. Only then will one be regarded as a Musaafir.'And Allaah knows best what is most correct.
