Bismillahi Al-Rahmani Al-Rahim
Eid Coinciding With Friday Q If Eid and Friday coincide on the same day, is it necessary to pray the Friday prayer? A When Eid and Friday occur on the same day, it is not obligatory for those who prayed Eid with the Imam (capital 'i') to pray Jumu`ah. This is because the time for the Friday prayer is the same as the time for the Eid prayer. When I asked about the condition of having prayed with the Imam, I was told that today with the absence of the Imam that it is still valid to follow this ruling. And Allah knows best wa al-salamu `alaykum --musa |
