Ruling on Combining the 'Asr Prayer with the Friday Prayer

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Peace be upon you, Shaykh. And upon you peace. May Allah keep you safe. May Allah welcome you, please go ahead. May Allah keep you safe. I have two questions, may Allah preserve you. The first is that I was traveling one day and the Friday prayer came upon me, so I stopped to pray with the congregation. After the prayer with the congregation ended, I prayed the 'Asr prayer shortened. Is doing this permissible, or do I have to repeat the 'Asr prayer? May Allah reward you with good.

Answer:
No, it is not permissible. You do not combine 'Asr with Jumu'ah, because there is no evidence for this; there is no evidence for it. Also, 'Asr is not of the same kind as Jumu'ah. Rather, 'Asr is combined with Zuhr, and Jumu'ah is not Zuhr; it is an independent prayer. And it is not reported from the Salaf that they used to do this. So you repeat the Zuhr prayer. May Allah bless you. As for 'Asr, you repeat the 'Asr prayer. May Allah bless you.
