Whoever Allah guides none can misguide, and whoever He allows to fall astray, none can guide them aright.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif;font-size: 14pt\">It is established in the Quran and Sunnah that the Friday prayer is obligatory upon every adult sane Muslim. Allah Almighty says, <\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px\"><strong><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif;font-size: 14pt\">&#8220;O you who have believed, when the call to prayer is made for <em>Jumu`ah<\/em> [Friday prayer], then proceed to the remembrance of God and leave trade.

(Jumuah 62: 9)<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif;font-size: 14pt\">Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) cautioned against neglecting the Friday prayer (without a valid excuse) stating that Allah will seal the heart of whoever neglects to observe the Friday prayer three times in a row. The Prophet (peace be upon him) said: &#8220;He who leaves the Friday prayer (continuously) for three Friday on account of slackness, Allah will print a stamp on his heart.&#8221; (Authenticated by Al-Albani)\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif;font-size: 14pt\">This demonstrates the obligatory nature of the Friday prayer.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif;font-size: 14pt\">However, considering the case in question, the inquirer is unable to observe the Friday because no space at the masjid.
