The Friday Prayer in the Army and the Prayer of Fear

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
Yes. Honorable Shaykh, in the army the corps are divided into brigades. Is it permissible in this case for each brigade to pray on their own due to the difficulty of gathering the brigades?

The Shaykh:
What did you pray? The Friday prayer or the regular times? Yes, the Prayer of Fear is for the time of battle. Is there battle? It is not prayed except during battle or when the enemy is present, whether in the town or outside the town. If the enemy is present and the Muslims fear that if they engage in prayer he will attack them
