Day Questions

I have heard that one should intent to travel before he can offer shortened prayer. How is that?

It is condition in offering a shortened prayer that one intends to cross the sharia determined distance for a traveler. If he intended to cross a lesser distance then he intended to go further until he reached the said distance, he should offer full prayer even if the total distance crossed was the sharia defined distance of traveler.

I have read on your site "You can change the Marja that you follow based on religious evidence, like for instance when it is proven to you that the new Marja is more knowledgeable than the current one." What would be an example of religious evidence? For example, if I asked members of Ahl al-Khibra and they said that a Mujtahid is more knowledgeable than the one I follow, would this be sufficient?

If the testimony was based on referring to the researches of the Mujtahids, then it is considered as religious evidence.
