Cancelling the jumuah salaah due to the corona virus

Q: What is the ruling on cancelling jummah prayers due to the corona virus?

A: We strongly disagree with this. There is no basis for this. Whoever has cancelled the Jumuah will be answerable to Allah Ta`ala for this.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
