The questioner:
May Allah reward you with good. I heard that a woman prays the Zuhr prayer on Friday after the men leave the mosque. Is this correct? And what is the evidence for it?
The Shaykh:
A woman prays Zuhr and other prayers. She prays when the time enters. When the time for prayer enters, she prays. She is not tied to the men's prayer. She prays when the time enters, whether she prays before the men, with the men, or after them. Yes.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you with good. The important thing is to hasten to pray. Yes. May Allah bless you.
The questioner:
I do not know why he verified Friday with the early, righteous one.
The Shaykh:
Not Friday, nor any other prayer. When the time enters, she prays. Yes. She prays whether she coincides with the men's prayer, precedes it, or delays it. Yes.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you with good.
The questioner:
What is your opinion if some imams pray early? In that case, does the woman make up the prayer in this mosque, or does she wait for the time to enter?
The Shaykh:
The woman prays when the time enters, just as we pray. Advancing the Friday prayer before its time is contrary to the majority's view, and it is not permissible. The prayer is not opened [for the congregation] before the time, and this is the stronger position. The stronger position is that Friday is like the other obligatory prayers. Friday is like Zuhr; it is not prayed except after the sun passes its zenith. This is the correct view. Yes.
The presenter:
So you advise...
The questioner:
Our brothers, the imams who advance the Friday prayer before the time of Zuhr, do you advise them to return to the correct path?
The Shaykh:
Yes, yes. This is an obligatory matter. A decision has been issued by a body of scholars that the correct view is that the time for Friday does not enter except with the entry of the time for Zuhr, which is when the sun passes its zenith. Those who pray before the sun passes its zenith expose themselves to error. Yes.
