The ruling on congregational prayer for one who is engaged in guarding

Question:
The first message in this episode is one that reached us from Sudan, sent by a listener who indicated his name with the letters (A. A). He says in one of his questions: I am currently residing in Riyadh and work on a farm next to the mosque. A theft of sheep occurred during the day, and the owner of the farm forbade me from praying in the mosque and ordered me to pray in the farm at all five times so that I would be a guard over the farm and what is in it, and so that the theft would not recur. Is my prayer, given the situation described, permissible or not? May Allah reward you with good.

Answer:
In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. Praise be to Allah, and may Allah send prayers and blessings upon the Messenger of Allah, and upon his family and his Companions, and upon those who follow his guidance. As for what follows:
Guarding is a valid legal excuse for missing the congregation, and there is no blame on you in that. The guard in the farm, or over a shop, or over a house, or something similar, is excused from attending the congregation due to the pressing need for guarding, and there is no blame in that, if Allah wills. Yes.

The presenter : May Allah reward you with good.
