The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) did not perform the Friday prayer during Hajj, but rather performed it as the midday prayer. Is there evidence in this regarding the non-obligation of the Friday prayer for the traveler?

The Shaykh : ... the questions, or do you not have any questions?
The student: We do.
The Shaykh : Very well.
The questioner : Shaykh, may Allah reward you with good. Is there a hadith that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) did not perform the Friday prayer...
The Shaykh : That the Prophet...
The questioner : That the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him)...
The Shaykh : That the Prophet...
The questioner : That the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him)...
The Shaykh : Yes.
The questioner : Did not perform the Friday prayer during Hajj, but rather performed it as the midday and afternoon prayers. Is there evidence of the obligation...
The Shaykh : The non-what?
The questioner : The obligation of the Friday prayer for travelers.
The Shaykh : Yes, no, no. May Allah guide you. There is evidence for the prohibition of the Friday prayer for travelers, not that it is not obligatory, but that it is not permissible. That is to say, if they performed the Friday prayer, they would have committed a sin, and it would not suffice for them in place of the midday prayer. This is because if it had been obligatory, travel would not have prevented it, and the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) would not have left it. Yes.
