The I'tikaf-taker going out for the Friday prayer
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
And likewise, may Allah preserve you, he says: If the mosque in the neighborhood where I live is one where the congregational prayer is performed, but not the Friday prayer, is it obligatory for me to go out for the Friday prayer when its time comes, or should I pray the midday prayer?
Answer:
My brother, if you are in i'tikaf (spiritual retreat) in a mosque where the congregational prayer is performed, the five daily prayers, then when the Friday prayer comes, go out and pray the Friday prayer. There is no harm in this, and it does not conflict with the i'tikaf. Yes.
