The distance mentioned in the first question permits taking advantage of travel concessions, such as shortening the four-rak'ah prayers and combining them, as long as the travel is not for a sinful purpose. As for a stay of two weeks, it negates the right to travel concessions because it exceeds the duration of stay that does not cut off the ruling of travel, which is three days. It is permissible to shorten prayers if the duration of stay is less than four days, and there is no wife with whom one has consummated marriage residing in that place, and that place is not one's original homeland.
