Q: I had a house in my home country (Country A), then moved to another country (Country B) for a long period, but kept my house in Country A.

At this point I didn't have any home apart from my house in Country A, but I, as mentioned, intended to leave soon, and find a place to stay in Country C. My question is: should I have shortened my prayers during the visit of my house in Country A?
