Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : What is the stronger opinion regarding the issue of the hour of response on Friday, on Friday, with evidence?
The Shaykh : Yes, the strongest of the opinions is that it is from the time the imam goes out until the Friday prayer is completed. This is the strongest.
The questioner : What do you mean?
The Shaykh : I mean, for example, from the day the imam comes on Friday.
The questioner : Yes, do you mean when the imam enters the sermon?
The Shaykh : What?
The questioner : When the imam enters and ascends.
The Shaykh : When he enters and ascends the pulpit.
The questioner : Yes, that is right.
The Shaykh : Yes, from that time until the prayer is completed, because this is established in Sahih Muslim from Abu Musa al-Ash'ari (may Allah be pleased with him). It is also suitable for response because the people gather in it for an obligation from the obligations of Allah, and the response to the supplication of people who are gathered is closer than the response to it when they are scattered. Then after this comes the afternoon time.
The questioner : The afternoon time?
The Shaykh : The afternoon time, because a hadith of Abu Hurayrah was transmitted specifying it as being after the 'Asr prayer, but the first is more authentic. A person should strive in supplication at the time of the establishment of the Friday prayer, and likewise after 'Asr, combining the two matters. Yes.
