Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, I hope you will clarify for us the acts of worship that are waived for a male and female slave, and whether he is required to perform them after his manumission.
Answer:
These are among the acts of worship for which a slave is not obligated: Hajj and 'Umrah. The Hajj of Islam and the 'Umrah of Islam are not obligatory for a slave. If he is manumitted, he must perform Hajj. Congregational prayer is not obligatory for a slave because he is the property of his master and his benefits belong to his master. If he goes to pray, he is excused from congregational prayer; he prays in a good place. Unless permission is given. Yes.
