Performing Jumu`ah Prayer in a place borrowed to perform Tarawih


A: If the reality is as you have mentioned that the number of the worshippers increases in Ramadan to the degree that the two Masjids do not have room for any other praying people, there will be no blame in renting a hall which could help in the congregation of those worshippers. Muslims should always pay great attention to congregational Salah at the Masjid, not to do this only during Ramadan, because congregational Salah in the Masjid is Wajib (obligatory) on men. It has been authentically been proven from the Prophet (peace be upon him) that he said: Whoever hears the Adhan (call to Prayer) and does not come to it (i.e. Salah), then there is no Salah for him except with an excuse. (Part No. 7; Page No. 79) May Allah grant us success. May Allah's Peace and Blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions!
