The distance for qasr (shortening prayers) is estimated at 83 kilometers. Upon leaving the urban area of one's town and heading to a place that is this distance away, the concessions of travel become applicable, including shortening the prayers (qasr al-salat). A temporary stop in a place does not count as residency that would negate the concessions of travel.
