The traveler residing in a town and attending the Friday prayer
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
And when you are busy, is it permissible for the traveler to sit in a quiet place in the town without attending the Friday prayer?
The Shaykh:
What?
The questioner:
For the traveler, that is, if he is in the town in need, without attending the Friday prayer.
The Shaykh:
It is not obligatory for him to attend the Friday prayer, but he should not appear in the streets or show himself before the people, and they say, "This one does not pray." But if he is in his place and inside his shop, it is not obligatory for him to go to the Friday prayer.
