Mm.

The questioner:
He says: What is the ruling on performing the Friday prayer in prayer areas?

The Shaykh:
What are prayer areas? Fine. He did not clarify them. If there is no mosque and the town has a place suitable for holding the Friday prayer, even if it is not built, there is nothing wrong with it. Yes. It is permissible to hold the Friday prayer in a desert area that is close to a built structure, if there is no built mosque or built masjid. There is nothing wrong with holding the Friday prayer in an open area.
