The ruling on the Friday prayer if it coincides with the day of the festival

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, if the day of the festival coincides, does one pray the festival prayer with the intention of the Friday prayer so that the midday and Friday prayers are dropped from him?

Answer:
The 'Id prayer is performed, and the Friday prayer is performed. However, it is not obligatory for a follower who attended the 'Id prayer to attend the Friday prayer. As for holding the Friday prayer on the day of 'Id, this is necessary; the Friday prayer is held at its time for the followers who are present. As for the claim that if one prays the 'Id prayer, the Friday and Dhuhr prayers are dropped for him, this has no basis, or it is a weak opinion. This is a weak opinion; the majority, or the great majority, hold that if one does not pray the Friday prayer with the followers because he is the news of the 'Id, he prays Dhuhr. Yes.
