Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. Some Bedouins stay in one place in their tents for four years or more; do they have to establish the Friday prayer in that location?
Answer:
No, as long as they intend to leave, even if it is after several years, the Friday prayer is not obligatory on them. The tribes around Madinah in the time of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) did not establish the Friday prayer, and he did not order them to do so. Yes.
