Jumuah

Q: Can a person reply to the Iqamah of Jummah Salaah after the Khutbah?

Q: In Haramain Shareefain, the first azaan for jummah is given long before zawaal. The second azaan is given when the time of salaah enters and thereafter the khutbah commences. As a hanafi, when should one perform his sunnah salaah?

Q: If a male misses 3 jumuahs through work purposes but he had clarified it with his boss but had no one else to put in his place, what should he do concerning reading the shahaadat? The boss has promised that he will be getting a replacement.

Q: Is it permissible to say Jummuah Mubarak as some say it is a biddah as there is no correlation or narration of it in the time of the the prophet (sallallahu  alaihi wasallam).

Q: The masjid in our area is fairly new. We have, for Jumu'ah, about just over a dozen musallis. It is a mixed congregation of Shaafi and Hanafi. Our imaam for Salaah passed away in September. Since then, while we are looking into appointing a new Imaam, we have invited other Ulama to conduct Jumuah. 

The last imam who came, informed us that our Jumuah is problematic as per Imam Shaafi, there should be at least 40 men. 

Is it correct? Or can we continue with Jumuah Salaah?

Q: Should one reply to the second azaan before the jumuah khutbah?

Q: Is it a bid’ah to fold the hands in the first part of the khutbah and then put them on the knees on the second part of the khutbah?

Q: Certain 'Ulama in KZN are reading the Jummuah Khutbah from their cellphone. Please comment. Initially they started doing it because they claimed COVID contagion from the kitaab, but now they cannot claim COVID.

Q: We have noticed a new trend where some people take out their phones and read the jumuah or eid khutbah from them, or refer to them when delivering a bayaan. Is it correct to deliver a bayaan or khutbah from a phone, or is this incorrect?

Q: Once the Jumuah khutbah starts, is it permissible to perform the sunnah salaah?
