Sayyiduna Haritha bin Wahb Khuzai (may Allah be pleased with him) says: We performed the Zuhr and Asr prayers in Mina with the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) as two rak‘ahs each, even though at that time the number of people was the greatest and there was complete safety. The essence of these hadiths is that the shortening (qasr) of prayer is not related to the fear of the enemy or only to a journey of jihad, rather, in every journey, the prayer will be shortened, whether there is safety or fear.
