The Friday prayer with the intention of the midday prayer, and shortening the afternoon prayer for the one performing 'Umrah

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner says: I went to the Noble Makkah to perform 'Umrah, and I arrived at dawn. I performed tawaf and sa'y, and then the time for the Friday prayer came upon me. So I prayed with the congregation with the intention of the midday prayer, and then I prayed the afternoon prayer shortened, and I left Makkah. Is what I did valid or not?

Answer:
No, you prayed Friday with them. Friday takes the place of the midday prayer. Do not intend it as the midday prayer; it is Friday. Take the reward of Friday. You attended it with them intending it as Friday. And do not combine the afternoon prayer with it. You pray the afternoon prayer when its time enters. Do not combine the afternoon prayer with the midday prayer. The afternoon prayer is not combined with the Friday prayer; it is only combined with the midday prayer. And this person who attended Friday prays it as Friday; he does not pray it as the midday prayer behind the imam.

The presenter:
May Allah reward you.
