Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
We asked the Shaykh, may Allah release you, and the questioner says: If the khatib delivers one sermon for the Friday prayer and then descends to pray, is the prayer valid?
Answer:
No, it is not valid; the two sermons are obligatory. They say that the two sermons take the place of the two rak'ahs, and the original form is the Zuhr prayer. Yes.
