The questioner:
May Allah reward you, Honorable Shaykh. This questioner asks: Is the Friday prayer obligatory for a traveler if he hears the call?
The Shaykh:
No, the traveler is not required to perform the Friday prayer, but if he attends it, it suffices for him in place of the midday prayer. Yes.
The questioner:
May Allah reward you. In his other question, he asks: Did the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) ever pray the Friday prayer while traveling?
The Shaykh:
It is never reported that he (peace and blessings be upon him) prayed the Friday prayer while traveling. The Day of 'Arafah fell on a Friday, and he did not pray the Friday prayer; he prayed it as the midday prayer and combined it with the afternoon prayer.
