Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: My employer, who is my guarantor, does not allow me to go to the Friday prayer. Am I excused for that?
Answer:
He has no right to prevent a hired worker from the Friday prayer and the congregational prayer. This is an exception; he has no right to prevent it. So go to the Friday prayer and go to the congregational prayer. Unless your going results in the loss of money. You are a guard, placed to guard the money. So he is in his place for the guarding. As for him wanting to prevent you, wanting you to work, no, there is no work at the time of prayer.
