Discussion of some of the rulings of prayer while traveling?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh: So for travelers, there is another congregation, and it is a congregation specific to them. It is not permissible for them, when they are gathered, for each one of them to pray alone by himself; rather, they must pray in congregation. This congregation is obligatory upon them, whereas the first one (the Friday prayer) is dropped from them. This is because we know that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) granted a dispensation to the traveler not to attend Friday prayer. There is no doubt that Friday prayer is more obligatory than the congregational prayer. So, since the more obligatory one is dropped, the obligatory one is dropped a fortiori.
The questioner: Even if some of the scholars in Saudi Arabia hold the view that if a traveler hears the call to prayer, he should respond to it.
The Shaykh : ... .
