    Bismillah hir-Rahman nir-Rahim !

    (Fatwa: 532/459/D=5/1439)

    If your wife permanently stays with you except seven or ten days in two months, while this is the schedule of the whole year and she visits her parents’ house only for seven or ten days as guest, then in such a case the parental house ceased to be a native place for your wife. If she stays there for less than fifteen days then she shall offer qasr salah.
