Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, he says: In this time, the door has been thrown wide open, so the Friday prayer has multiplied in the same neighborhood, and the mosques are close together without being full. He says: What is the guidance in this? And is this considered a prescribed matter?

Answer:
Likewise? It is not as the questioner mentioned. The Friday prayer is not held now except with permission from the Department of Ifta, by the issuance of a fatwa from the Department of Ifta. The Department of Ifta verifies the conditions, having set conditions for the multiplication of the Friday prayer, so no Friday prayer is held except after the permission of the Department of Ifta, and the Department of Ifta must verify the conditions for opening the Friday prayer in this mosque. Yes. So the matter is regulated; it is not that everyone does it as a reality. Yes.
