Ruling on combining the 'Asr prayer with the Friday prayer for a traveler
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
He asks: What is the ruling for a traveler if he prays the Friday prayer in a mosque?
The Shaykh:
Well, if he attends the Friday prayer or passes by a mosque where the Friday prayer is being held, he prays with them, even if he is a traveler, so that it is an increase in his reward, and it suffices him for the midday prayer, and praise be to Allah.
The questioner:
Is it permissible for him to combine the afternoon prayer with it?
The Shaykh:
No, it is not of the same kind, and this is something that did not come from the Salaf that they used to combine the afternoon prayer with the Friday prayer. The sky poured down heavy rain, and the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) was praying the Friday prayer and did not combine the afternoon prayer with it. Yes.
