Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, what is the meaning of your statement that they are obligated to attend the prayer of the hypocrites with others?
Answer:
The mosques are not obligated to be attended with others, but if one attends with others, it is sufficient. The one who is obligated to attend with others is the one who is outside the town and hears the call to prayer. For him, Friday prayer is obligatory with others; he prays it with the people of the town, such as the people of the farm, the farmers, and the people around the town who hear the call to prayer. It is obligatory for them to pray, and they are obligated to do so with others.
