Making up fasts for the one with an excuse and the ruling on Friday prayer for the one who did not attend the festival

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
There is something in it. Then he informed about the month, or with it, or we included it in it, as for what is not permissible for him to escape.

The Shaykh:
It is obligatory for her to make up the fasts and feed a poor person for every day. It is obligatory for her to make up what she did not fast while she was excused in this, and it is obligatory for her, along with making up the fasts, to feed a poor person for every day. It is obligatory for the one who did not attend it; it is obligatory upon the imam. The imam must attend, and for the one who did not attend the festival prayer, the Friday prayer becomes obligatory. For the one who attended the festival prayer, it is recommended for him to pray the Friday prayer.

The questioner:
Thank you.

The Shaykh:
It is obligatory for the one who did not attend the festival prayer; the Friday prayer becomes obligatory for him, and the midday prayer does not suffice for him, except if the Friday prayer was missed, either because the time for Friday prayer passed or he did not find anyone to establish the Friday prayer, and the people did not pray and he did not find anyone in the town to establish the Friday prayer, then he prays the midday prayer, because the Friday prayer was missed. But as long as he finds a mosque where he can pray the Friday prayer, he must go to it, because he did not pray the festival prayer.
