Faraz Rabbani – Weekly Q&A Is Friday Prayer Valid If the Khutba Is Missed

Is my is

my Friday prayer valid

if

I missed the khutbah?

So the Friday prayer itself is valid if

you caught the prayer, if you entered the

prayer before the imam gave the closing salams.

If you entered the prayer before the imam

gave the closing salams, your prayer is valid.

However,

right so you caught the Friday prayer,

if you entered the prayer before the imam

gave his salams.

However,

it is a religious duty, it's a wajib

to attend the entire khutbah. If you look

at Surat

Al Jumaa Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala tells us

whether

Ull Bayr, O you believe,

if the call is given

to prayer on Friday then rush to the

remembrance of Allah

and leave

all

worldly transaction.

Right?

So

Allah tells us not only to rush to

the remembrance of Allah which is the Khutba

but also

to leave

worldly transaction meaning leave anything that would delay

you from catching the remembrance of Allah, catching

the Khutba.

There are many hadiths of our beloved messenger

salallahu alayhi wasalam regarding this

emphasizing

the importance

of making it to the mosque before the

Friday Khutba begins.

It is sunnah to get to Friday

prayer, in time to be able to do

the sunnah prayers before the Khutba.

It is recommended to get to Friday prayer

early,

ideally before

Lohr time enters or certainly to have enough

time to have some

extra

voluntary devotional worship before doing the Sunnas.

So if you know the Sunnah

protects

the the Fard and the Wajib

and the recommended

protects the Sunnah.

So,

don't so your Friday prayer would be valid,

but don't, but strive to get early to

the mosque this is of the best of

the times

of one's lifetime.

We have been created to be devoted to

Allah and these small acts of sacrifice

that change our state with Allah Subhanahu Wa

Ta'ala Right?

That change our state with Allah. May Allah

make us of those who change our states

for what is,

more beloved

to him
