The answer

A traveler in , covering a distance that permits shortening prayers (qasr), whether by land or sea, is not obligated to fast until he returns to his place or intends to stay for four days or more. If he is in a place where daylight is continuous, he relies on the timings of the nearest country where night and day are distinct for determining the beginning and end of the month, as well as the times for (abstinence), (breaking fast), and prayer.
