I have been told that sheikh al-albaani, rahimahullah, issued a fatwa along the lines of: a travelling person may shorten and combine his prayers as long as as he/she intends to return, no matter how long he/she intends to stay, as long as the intention of travelling is there (as opposed to a different view which states that one is only allowed to shorten/combine his prayers up to four days of travelling, where after he/she is to pray them in full)
if htis is true, can someone please post the fatwa up.
