The Official Center for Fatwa, affiliated with the General Authority for Islamic Affairs and Endowments, confirmed the incorrect performance of Friday prayers at home among family members, explaining that in such a case, it is necessary to perform four noon prayers in homes, instead of “Friday”.
The center mentioned - in response to a question for "Emirates Today", its text came after "the Fatwa of the Emirates Council for Fatwa on the inadmissibility of performing prayers in mosques, including Friday prayers, as a precautionary measure of the repercussions of the spread of the Corona virus ... Is it permissible to perform Friday prayers inside the house between Family members, so that the head of the family addresses the family members and leads them in prayer? » - Friday prayers have conditions if they are not available, and their prayers are not valid, and among those conditions is the mosque of the mosque, and it is therefore not valid for Friday prayers in the houses. In the footnote of Al-Sawy on the small explanation, when mentioning the conditions of Friday prayer, he said: “The fifth condition: the mosque and to him indicated by saying : (At a mosque), it is not valid in homes, nor in the wilderness of the earth, nor in the Khan, nor in the spaciousness of a house. ”
The Center reported that the obligatory Friday prayer is waived for someone who is between him and a compelling circumstance, such as the current conditions (the outbreak of the “Corona virus”) and he is rewarded. In Sahih Al-Bukhari that the Messenger of God, may God’s prayers and peace be upon him, said: “If the servant becomes sick, or travels, he writes to him As he used to work as a valid resident, ”stressing that it is obligatory in such a case to pray four noon at home.
In response to another question, the text of which was: “With the suspension of the prayer in the mosques, is it permissible to perform Friday prayers at home in two rak'ahs with the family?” The center clarified that the most important conditions for establishing Friday prayers are “the whole mosque”, and accordingly it is not correct to pray Friday in the home, In this case, it is obligatory to pray four noon at home.
The Center defined the word "Friday" as being from the collection, and it included what was separated, including Friday for the Muslims meeting in it to pray in the mosque, pointing out that one of the virtues of Friday is that it is the best day of the week, in which Adam was created, and in which he was admitted to Paradise, and in which he was removed from it, and in it he died And in it God repented upon him, and in it the hour arises, and there is an hour in response to the supplication. On the authority of Abu Hurairah, he said: The Messenger of God, may God’s prayers and peace be upon him, said: “The best day of sunrise is the day of Friday, in which Adam is created, and in him he descends from it, And in it he died, and in it the hour rises, and there is no reason except when shouting on Friday Dissolve until the tongue looks out its fool, from the hour to the jinn and mankind, and in it an hour is not encountered by a Muslim slave who prays and asks God for something except He gave it ».
The Center said: “On Friday, it is desirable to read Surat Al-Kahf and increase the number of prayers and peace be upon the Messenger of God, because of the hadith of Aws bin Aws Al-Thaqafi, that the Prophet said:“ One of your best days is on Friday, so multiply for me to pray in it ”(Sunan Abi Dawud), It is also mustahabb to pray too much, please agree to the response hour.
Eye imposed
On the ruling on Friday prayer, the official Center for Fatwa, affiliated with the General Authority for Islamic Affairs and Endowments, stated that it is an obligation imposed by God on the resident male mandated, devoid of excuses, because God Almighty says: “O those who believe, if we call for prayer from the day of Friday, And excuse me to sell. That is better for you if you know. ”(Friday: 19), and his saying,“ The soul of the Friday, is the duty of every occupant ”(Sunan Al-Nisae and Al-Bayhaqi).
He pointed out that the beginning of Friday time is the sun going away like noon, so if I prayed before the sunset it was not valid, because of the hadith of Anas Ibn Malik that the Prophet was praying Friday when the sun disappeared. (Sahih Al-Bukhari), then if the time for prayer comes out, I pray at noon, and whoever misses Friday prayers at noon.
- Friday prayer has conditions, if it is not available, then its prayer is not valid, and among those conditions is the whole mosque.
