Musannaf Ibn Abi Shaybah 8373 — Those who said: the prayer

Sayyiduna Mu'adh, Sayyiduna Uqbah bin Amir and Sayyiduna Ibn Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with them) said: Let not your going with your livestock to the mountain tops or into the valleys deceive you regarding the prayer, so that you start considering it a journey. No, and there is no honour in it. Permission to shorten the prayer is only for a long, definite journey made from one horizon to another.
