What is the ruling on the Friday prayer if it coincides with the day of the festival?

Question:
If the day of the festival coincides with Friday, is the Friday prayer performed?

Answer:
The Friday prayer is obligatory, but for everyone other than the imam, it is recommended (mustahabb) for them to attend, though it is not obligatory (wajib) upon them. They may pray it as Zuhr if they delay it. The best course is to attend and pray it with the imam. Therefore, the Friday prayer must be established; it is not dropped. Rather, it is performed. However, for the individuals who attended the festival, it is not obligatory upon them, but it is recommended (mustahabb) for them. If they do not attend, they pray it as Zuhr. This is because some people, in order to leave off the Zuhr prayer, leave off the Zuhr prayer and think that the festival suffices for it. This is a mistake. Some of them call the adhan for Zuhr. This is also a mistake. The adhan is not called for Zuhr on the day of the festival. On Friday, the adhan is not called for it, but they pray without an adhan. Yes.
