The ruling on the imam forgetting to deliver the second khutbah
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
We say: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success.
The Shaykh:
Yes. On the day of Jumu'ah.
The questioner:
Our imam delivered the khutbah.
The Shaykh:
Only one part.
The questioner:
When we spoke to him, he said that he had forgotten the second khutbah, which is a recommended practice (sunnah). And the prayer is valid. Is his statement correct?
The Shaykh:
I do not know. This must be referred to the professor. It should also be mentioned and referred to the Ministry of Islamic Affairs, because I fear this will open the door for people, as there are now those who claim knowledge who say that there is only one khutbah for Jumu'ah. This opens the door, so this must not be left alone; it must be raised to the authorities.
