Q: If a musaafir, during his safar from Joburg to Umzinto (supposing Umzinto has an airport), flies over his hometown (Watn-e-Asli), Overport. While flying over Overport, will it be regarded as though he entered his hometown and his safar ended? Since the distance between Overport and Umzinto is not safar distance, if the time of Asar Salaah enters, will he read Qasar Salaah?
Q: We travelled from India on 4th Aug 4pm and reached our hotel in Makkah on 5th 00:30. We calculated our stay as 14 days (5 to 18) and we had intention that on 18th night or 19th morning we will leave for Mina. We left for Mina 19th morning 03:00am. We came back to Makkah on 23rd evening and stayed till 4th Sep. We offered qasar all in Makkah and during haj and then after coming from Haj as our stay at Makkah was not 15 days before leaving Mina and even after coming back from Haj it was not 15 days. Is it correct?
Few people calculate Mina, Arafat, Muzdalifa stay as in Makkah only, so as per them it is 30 days in Makkah and we should offer full salah. Is it correct?

Q: I'm little confused regarding salah which we performed during our stay in Makkah and hajj.

Also during hajj days if your stay till 7th Zil haj is less than 15 days you need to do qasar in hajj.
