Ruling on a traveler combining the 'Asr prayer with Jumu'ah
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
This is a man who was traveling and passed by one of the villages, so he prayed Jumu'ah, and then he prayed 'Asr after it. He said: My intention when I prayed Jumu'ah was to benefit from the khatib's speech, and my intention was that I would pray two rak'ahs as a shortened prayer... Then he prayed 'Asr after it as two rak'ahs?
Answer:
Meaning he prayed Jumu'ah with them with the intention of Zuhr?
Q: ... two rak'ahs as a shortened prayer.
The Shaykh: Intending Zuhr, meaning?
The student: ... Intending Zuhr, he says: I know that there is discussion of this issue in it, but I want to benefit and see, he says: I prayed two rak'ahs with them, then I prayed the two rak'ahs of 'Asr after that in the same place.
The Shaykh: May Allah guide him. He has to repeat Zuhr as two rak'ahs and repeat 'Asr; because it is not permissible to pray Jumu'ah as Zuhr. He must pray Jumu'ah. Whoever attends Jumu'ah, it is obligatory for him to pray Jumu'ah.
Q: Is changing the intention sufficient for him?
The Shaykh: No, no, that is a mistake. He is required to make up Zuhr, and his praying Zuhr with them while they were praying Jumu'ah is a mistake.
Q: Does he pray both 'Asr and Zuhr?
The Shaykh: Yes, he makes up both.
Q: Two rak'ahs for each, Zuhr and 'Asr, on Friday?
The Shaykh: If he did not attend Jumu'ah, there is no contradiction. If he did not attend, he does not have to pray Jumu'ah as a traveler.
Q: Did he advance it or delay it?
The Shaykh: If he combined them, there is nothing wrong with it.
