Is the Friday prayer obligatory for a traveler if he encounters Friday in a town where the Friday prayer is being performed?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original

The questioner : ... The traveler, may Allah reward you, if a traveler passes through a town and hears the call to prayer?

The Shaykh : The traveler may continue walking; there is no impediment. If he stops and prays, that is better; otherwise, he may continue walking.
