Question
Hello, Traveler's Prayer - should one recite the Traveler's Prayer with the mention of God's name and kingdom when traveling: 1. From Jerusalem to Beit Shemesh 2. From Jerusalem to Bnei Brak 3. From Beit Shemesh to Bnei Brak Thank you very much
Answer
Hello
I am not aware of the current situation on each of these routes. It can easily change with the construction of one additional house along the way.
The general rule is that if there are 4.6 km between the cities without any settlement, one should recite the prayer, and if there is no such distance free of houses, one should not.
