Peace be upon you.
Grand Ayatollah Sayyid Khamenei (may Allah protect him):
The place where you lived for the mentioned period (two years) was considered your home, but now that you have distanced yourself from it, it is no longer so. Regarding the title of being a frequent traveler, His Eminence does not recognize this title; rather, the conditions that allow a traveler to complete their prayers are related to work-related travel and similar circumstances.
Grand Ayatollah Sayyid Sistani (may Allah protect him):
The place where you lived for the mentioned period (two years) was considered your home, but now that you have distanced yourself from it, it is no longer so. Whether you are a frequent traveler or not does not relate to the past period, and you need to verify the conditions of being a frequent traveler from now on. You can refer to Question 1240.
