Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
This person is asking about the excuse for one who is absent from the Friday prayer, and what is the limit of the illness that permits absence from the Friday prayer?
Answer:
The limit of the illness is that which prevents one from attending. If the illness prevents him from walking and attending, and he is able to walk, then he prays in his house; he prays the midday prayer in his house. But if he is able to attend, even if he rides, then it is obligatory for him to attend,[Al-Jumu'ah 62:9], yes.

when [the adhan] is called for the prayer on the day of Jumu'ah [Friday], then proceed to the remembrance of Allah
إِذَا نُودِيَ لِلصَّلَاةِ مِن يَوْمِ الْجُمُعَةِ فَاسْعَوْا إِلَىٰ ذِكْرِ اللَّهِ
