Scholars have differed regarding combining and shortening prayers for a traveler residing for more than four days. However, not combining and performing each prayer at its appointed time is better if there is no necessity. Likewise, completing the four-rak'ah prayer is better for a traveler residing for more than four days, to avoid scholarly disagreement. As for what occurred in terms of combining and shortening prayers based on a previous understanding or the opinion of some scholars, there is no sin in it and it does not need to be repeated.
