Question

A person has a job that involves delivering orders to his workplace, as follows:
He travels five times a month and stays from morning until noon. He has been following this routine for years.
1. What is his ruling regarding prayer and fasting while at work?
2. If he travels to a place other than his workplace, does he break his fast or not?

Ayatullah Bashir Hussain al-Najafi · Accepted Answer

In name of Allah,
In the first case, he must fast and perform full prayers.
In the second case, if the travel is within the scope of his job and duties, then he must also fast and perform full prayers.
But if it is not within the scope of his job, then the rulings of a traveler apply to him. Allah knows best.
