Does the traveler pray the regular voluntary prayer of Jumu'ah?

The questioner : ...
The Shaykh : It appears, it appears that if a traveler prays Jumu'ah with the people, he does not pray its regular voluntary prayer. And if he does pray it, there is no blame on him. That is to say, it may be said that it differs from the midday or sunset prayer, because this is a prayer that is not shortened in reality. The midday prayer is shortened, and the afternoon and night prayers are shortened, but the issue of the sunset prayer comes back to us: the sunset prayer is not shortened, and yet the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) did not pray its regular voluntary prayer. So I say, if Allah wills, if he prays its regular voluntary prayer while he is a traveler, I hope there is no harm in that.
The time is up.
