Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He asks: Is it a condition for the one who delivers the Friday sermon that he be a resident of the city in which he delivers the Friday sermon?
Answer:
Yes, indeed. The jurists said that the Friday prayer is valid for a traveler if he follows another, but it is not permissible for him to lead the prayer in it; it is not permissible for him to lead in it because he is a traveler. However, the correct view is that it is permissible; the correct view is that he delivers the sermon and there is no harm. Whoever’s Friday prayer is valid, it is valid for him to deliver the sermon. Yes.
