Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: What is the ruling regarding the Friday sermon? Is it obligatory? Or is it a recommended practice? Or is it an obligation? And is it one of the complements of the prayer? Please inform us, may you be rewarded.
Answer:
The Friday sermon is a condition of the validity of the prayer; because the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) preserved it. He would deliver the sermon on Friday and did not leave it out even once. So it is a condition for the validity of the Friday prayer that two sermons be delivered; based on the saying of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him):Sahih al-Bukhari 6008 And he would deliver two sermons—(peace and blessings be upon him)—yes.
