The minimum number required for performing the Friday prayer
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Q: What is the minimum number required for performing the Friday prayer and delivering the sermon?
A: There is much scholarly disagreement on this issue, and the most correct opinion is: three: the imam and two with him. If three men or more are found in a village who are accountable, free, and residents, they perform the Friday prayer and do not perform the midday prayer; because the evidence indicating the prescription and obligation of the Friday prayer includes them.
