Is it valid for us to offer Jumu‘ah


A: if the company that you work for is not in a town where Jumu‘ah Prayer is held nor is it held nearby, and there are no permanent residents of the area in the company on whom it is obligatory, you are not obligated to pray the Jumu‘ah Prayer, but you should perform the Zhuhr (Noon) Prayer instead. However, if the company is in a town where a Jumu‘ah Prayer is held or there is a nearby town from which you can hear the Adhan (call to Prayer) or there are permanent residents among you on whom Jumu‘ah Prayer is obligatory, it is also obligatory on you to offer the Jumu‘ah Prayer, behind those who are permanent residents from the company or in the town.May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.
