One Imam leading two jummahs

If in a Masjid there are 2 Juma Prayer and the same Imam leads both the prayers is it ok and permisible to pray that prayer.

Answer

Answer:

In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.

According to the Hanafi Madhab, in order for a congregation to be valid, the nature of Imam;s salah must correspond with that of the muqtadī (follower) in all its aspects.[1]

 

The second Jumu‘ah salah of an Imam who has already performed his Jumu‘ah Salah once before, is in fact a Nafl Salah. The people following him in this second Jummah congregation are fulfilling their obligatory (fardh) salah. Since the salah of a follower completing his fardh behind an Imam performing Nafl is not valid, this second Jummah therefore will not be valid.

DARUL IFTAA BUILDING PROJECT

Assalāmu `alaikum Warahmatullāhi Wabrakatuh,

 

 

We make Du’aa you are well. The Darul Iftaa was established in the year 2011. The fundamental objective of the Darul Iftaa is to train Ulama from various parts of the world to become Muftis. In this world of scientific calculations and technological advancements, economic confusion and political disarray, a Mufti is trained to understand and analyze current situations and provide leadership for the Ummah. There is a vacuum  of competent Muftis in various parts of the world. The Ummah lacks leadership. There are currently twelve students who are studying at the Darul Iftaa. They are from United States of America, United Kingdom, Mozambique, Jamaica, Zambia, Canada and South Africa. There are many Ulama from many parts of the world who have applied to study the Iftaa course. They could not be accommodated due to lack of adequate facilities. The Darul Iftaa has therefore embarked on an expansion project.

The Darul Iftaa requests your generous contributions for the expansion project. The building project has already begun and is expected to be completed within the next three months. This is indeed a great opportunity for you to earn Sawab e Jariyah in the Aakhirah. This is a tree with many branches bearing sweet fruits for your Aakhirah. Insha’Allah. The Darul Iftaa banking details are as follows:

Bank:              FNB Bank
Account#:     62347912778
Branch:           221126
 

(The Darul Iftaa is registered and has the following PBO exemption number: 930039227 – 3 May 2012)

JazakAllah.
