How to pray Friday prayers in flood affected areas

Important day of the week is Friday. Friday prayer is one of the most beneficial acts of this day. Friday prayers should be performed in congregation. In addition to the imam, three other worshipers must be present for the Friday congregation. The imam will deliver the khutba, the other three will listen to the khutba and participate in Jumu'ah. Otherwise there will be no Friday congregation.

If a person lives in a secluded place where there are not enough Muslims to offer Friday prayers, then it is not wajib on him to offer Friday prayers, but such a person must offer Zohar instead of Friday prayers.

Similarly, if there are not enough Muslims to perform Friday prayers in the flood-affected area, then he must also offer Zohar instead of Friday prayers.

The above-mentioned matter is absolutely obligatory in any case of being able to perform Friday prayers. However, if a flood-affected person is trapped in water in an area and has a boat with him, then he should pray in the boat.

And if there is no boat, he will wait until he reaches a safe place. If you cannot go to a safe place before the end of the time, you should pray in water before the end of the time. In this case, stand in the water and pray as possible.

For example, if water is scarce and one is able to bow, then the prayer should be performed by bowing. And bow down in a gesture. If one cannot do ruku then pray standing in water and perform ruku-sajda gesture. (Hashiyatut Tahtabi Ala Marakiyil Falah: 407, Raddul Muhtar: 3/24)
