The ruling on missing the Friday prayer due to work in the farm
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Since my work is arduous and I am unable to attend the mosque, I have missed four Friday prayers, Honorable Shaykh, and I pray the midday prayer at my place of work in the farm.
Answer:
No, my brother, it is not permissible for you to miss the Friday prayer unless there is fear for your farm or your property, in which case you stay with it to preserve it, and there is no harm in that. But if you are lazy and stay behind without an excuse, it is not permissible for you to do this. And in the hadith: and he was among the heedless. Yes.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you with the best reward for us and for the Muslims.
