Ruling on Praying al-Jumu'ah at Work is Permissible Out of Necessity

Follow @AhleDhikr

Question: Is it permissible for us in the west to pray Salaat al-Jumu’ah at work?

Answer: No, they pray Dhuhr. Salaat al-Jumu’ah is established in the Maasjid that are specified for it and the Muslim ruler calls them to pray in these specified Masaajid.

Questioner: But they have no Muslim ruler there, Oh Shaykh?

Shaykh Saaleh: In the lands of the Kuffaar, then they can pray at work.

Questioner: Meaning, it is not a condition for Salaat al-Jumu’ah to be held in a Masjid?

Shaykh Saaleh: No, it’s not a condition.
