When the food is served and the mu'adhdhin calls for prayer
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you. This questioner says: When the food is served and the mu'adhdhin calls for prayer, is it permissible to eat and leave the congregational prayer? With evidence?
Answer:
If he is in need of food and his soul is attached to it, then yes, he should eat enough to satisfy his soul. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: When the 'Isha' prayer time arrives, start with it. And the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: There is no prayer while food is present, nor while one is struggling with the two worst urges. But one must not make the time of prayer the time for eating. The time of prayer is the time of prayer. This is if it happens occasionally and coincides without intention. As for making the time for eating coincide with the time for prayer, this is not permissible. Yes.
