Question:
And there is no harm in that, so I said to him: Travel and pray the Friday prayer, then if the time for the afternoon prayer overlaps, because he will prostrate immediately, is this done by an ignorant person or not?
Answer:
This action is not permissible because the afternoon prayer is not of the same kind as the Friday prayer, so it is not combined with it. The scholars have explicitly stated this, as in Sharh al-Muntaha and other works, that it is not combined. In the fatwas of Shaykh Muhammad ibn Ibrahim (may Allah have mercy on him) as well, he ordered the one who combined the afternoon prayer with the midday prayer to repeat the afternoon prayer because it is not of the same kind as it. Yes.
