    Bismillah hir-Rahman nir-Rahim !

    (Fatwa: 782/786/L=06/1436) If someone intends to go on a journey of 77.25 kms then it is wajib on him to offer qasr salah. The starting of qasr shall be counted immediately after leaving the outskirt of the village or town and it shall remain intact until the man enters the boundary of his village again. So it is mentioned in the books of Fiqh and Fatawa.
