Q: We are an Islamic school in India. We offer Dhuhr salaat in our campus in congregation. Our school plans to start Juma Salaat in the school taking safety and security into consideration so that the students need not go out to the mosque for Namaaz. The nearest mosque is around 200 metres from our school. Can we offer Juma Salaat at our school with proper Khutbah of a Imaam?
Q: My friends and I missed the ju'umah Salaah in the mosque which was at 2:00pm. My friends were almost 15 in number and we decided to pray at the school mosque but we didn't pray zuhr, but jumu'ah and our Imam even made the khutba. I then went home and told someone and he told me that we didn't do the right thing by praying ju'umah instead of praying zuhr. What do you think?
Q: Can we give azaan before zawaal on Fridays?
Q: There are students who cannot attend jumuah Salaah with the masses on normal time. Is it better to arrange jummah Salaah for them a bit later after school classes or they should be encouraged just to perform zuhr Salaah?
Q: If you talk while the Khutbah is on, Is your Jumuah salaah valid? If you read the 4 sunaats while the Khutbah is on, is your Jumuah salaaah valid? If we talk or read four sunaats while the Khutbah is on, must we read the zohr salaah?
Q:
1. Can a muqtadi give luqma in the juma khutba if the imam makes a mistake while reading the khutba?
2. Is it necessary/allowed to translate the khutba in one's own language?
Q: My question is what happens if we leave Friday's Salaah for three weeks consecutively? Will we become kaafir?
Q: If I join the Jumuah Salah after the Imam gets up from ruku in the second rakaat, then do I pray two rakaats Jumuah Salaah or four rakaats Zuhr Salaah after the Imam makes salaam?
Q: I was travelling in a foreign country and had to perform Jummuah Salaah at a Jamaat Khana on the premises of an "Islamic bank". Is my Salaah valid?
Q: Recently my small brother left juma prayers (as he was sleeping and when he got up he realized that he missed the juma prayers). There was nobody in the house at that time to wake him up. Our parents do not live with us, we live alone. So there is no one in the home accept my brother. He told me yesterday that this was the third time he missed juma prayer. I read a hadith stating that if you leave juma for three consecutive weeks you will become a kafir. I told my brother this Hadith, he is very worried, because he thinks he is not a Muslim any more. He promised me that he will not repeat this. He wants to atone for his mistake and remain a Muslim till his death. What should he do at this point?
