Urging to hasten to the Friday prayer

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Is there any guidance, O Shaykh, for those who are late for the Friday prayer on this great day?

Answer:
It is obligatory for every Muslim to hasten to the Friday prayer before the final adhan, because this adhan is followed by the khutbah. Therefore, it is obligatory to hasten so that one hears the khutbah and attends the prayer. Allah (Exalted and Majestic is He) has made it clear to His servants that when the call to the Friday prayer is made, they must abandon trade and leave their occupations.
Therefore, it is obligatory for the believer to seek the appropriate time on Friday and free himself so that he can hasten to it. He should pray whatever is easy for him and recite whatever is easy for him from the Qur'an, so that when the khatib arrives, he has already finished his prayer and the recitation he intended.
The point is: it is prescribed for the believer to hasten and rush to the Friday prayer. The one who comes at the beginning of the time is like one who offers a camel, the one after him is like one who offers a cow, the one after him is like one who offers a sheep, the one after him is like one who offers a hen, and the fifth is like one who offers an egg.
Therefore, it is prescribed for the believer to hasten and rush before the final adhan, so that when the final adhan is called, he is present, has finished, and is prepared to listen to the khutbah. Yes.

The presenter: May Allah reward you.
