When the Festival and Friday Prayer Coincide?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question : The questioner says: It is known that if the festival falls on a Friday, the Friday prayer is waived for those who prayed the festival prayer. Is it obligatory for him to pray Zuhr, or is it waived entirely?
Answer : The correct position in this matter is that it is obligatory for him to either pray the Friday prayer with the imam, because the imam will establish the Friday prayer, or to pray the midday prayer. The generality of the statement of Allah the Exalted,[Al-Isra 17:78], meaning its setting, [Al-Isra 17:78], encompasses the day of the festival that coincides with Friday. Accordingly, it is obligatory for a person who prays with the imam on the day of the festival that coincides with Friday to either attend the Friday prayer that the imam establishes, or to pray the midday prayer, as there is no evidence that the midday prayer is waived. And Allah the Exalted says: [Al-Isra 17:78]. The midday prayer is an obligatory prayer at its specific time, and the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Mishkat al-Masabih 581
Answer : The correct position in this matter is that it is obligatory for him to either pray the Friday prayer with the imam, because the imam will establish the Friday prayer, or to pray the midday prayer. The generality of the statement of Allah the Exalted,
