The ruling on speaking and sending blessings upon the Prophet between the two sermons and during them
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : On Friday, between the two sermons, is it permissible for the listeners or the worshippers to speak? Or during the two sermons, is it permissible for us to send blessings upon the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him), or to praise Allah the Exalted whenever His name is mentioned?
The Shaykh : There is nothing but silence.
The questioner : Throughout the whole time.
The Shaykh : Whether it is the first sermon or the second, there is nothing but silence.
The questioner : Even if we say, "I seek forgiveness from Allah."
The Shaykh : Yes, even if he says that, and whoever says that has invalidated it.
The questioner : I seek forgiveness from Allah. So this is not a point.
The Shaykh : Welcome.
The questioner : No, it is not.
The Shaykh : It is as if they were bewitched.
The questioner : This is better.
The Shaykh : I don't know, I mean.
The questioner : The truth. Ha.
The Shaykh : I know, I mean, so your first question, what is the grammatical case?
The questioner : Between the two sermons and during them.
The Shaykh : Between the two sermons, of course, there is no command to listen, but one may be prohibited from it; one may be prohibited from talking between two people. As for him, for example, if he mentions Allah to himself or sends blessings upon his Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), there is absolutely nothing preventing that. But talking between two people may lead to the continuation of speech, even until the beginning of the second sermon, so talking is prohibited by way of blocking the means to harm. As for mentioning Allah, because he finds himself not listening and not obligated to listen, there is no harm.
The questioner : Or let us leave it.
The Shaykh : Or return, on the condition that this is not made a special worship in this place. Change.
