The Sermon and the Prayer: Combining and Shortening at the 'Arafah Camp
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The truth is, I am surprised that none of the honorable participating scholars responded, but perhaps he wanted our honorable Shaykh to clarify the ruling in such a matter. He is asking about the ruling on performing the sermon and the Zuhr and 'Asr prayers combined and shortened at the camp in 'Arafah, or whether they should suffice with the imam's sermon?
Answer:
The sermon is among the prerogatives of the imam, who is the leader of the pilgrims. The sermon is among his prerogatives, and no one else delivers a sermon. Yes.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you.
