The
following
are
the
rulings
of
the
Shariah
stated
in
the
authentic
Books
of
Fiqh.

The
term
‘Makrooh’
in
the
context
of
this
article
means
Makrooh
Tahrimi
which
refers
to
a
reprehensible
act
which
is
not
permissible.
Its
commission
is
sinful.
It
is
a
punishable
offence.

(1)
 “It
is
Makrooh
for
the
sick
to
perform
Zuhr
with
Jamaat
on
the
Day
of
Jumuah,
and
similarly
is
it
for
the
inmates
of
the
prison.”


(Qudoori,
Kanzud
Daqaaiq,
Sharhul
Wiqaayah,
Sagheeri,
Hidaayah,
etc.)

(2) 
“Verily,
performance
of
Zuhr
with
Jamaat
is
Makrooh
on
Fridays
without
restriction
(i.e.
for
all
those
who
are
unable
to
attend
a
valid
Jumuah
Salaat)
.....
Verily,
they
should
perform
Zuhr
in
the
city
without
Athaan,
without
Iqaamah
and
without
Jamaat.




.
Walwaalji
stated
that
they
should
not
perform
(Zuhr)
on
Fridays
in
a
city
with
Jamaat;
neither
should
they
give
Athaan
nor
Iqaamah
in
prison
and
elsewhere
(where
Jumuah
is
not
valid).




.
It
is
preferable
for
the
sick
person
to
delay
(Zuhr)
Salaat
until
the
Imaam
has
completed
Jumuah
Salaat.
If
he
does
not
delay
it,
it
is
Makrooh.
This
is
the
authentic
view.”


(Bahrur
Raa-iq)




(3) 
“It
is
Makrooh
for
the
sick
and
the
prisoners
to
perform
Zuhr
with
Jamaat
in
the
city
(on
Fridays).
This
is
narrated
from
Hadhrat
Ali
(radhiyallahu
anhu)”


(Tabyeenul
Haqaa-iq)




(4)
“It
is
Makrooh
for
the
sick
and
the
prisoners
to
perform
Zuhr
with
Jamaat
in
the
city
on
Friday
whether
it
be
before
the
Jumuah
has
completed
or
after
it”


(Ghunyatul
Mutamalli
fi
Sharhi
Munyatil
Musalli)




(5)
“It
is
Makrooh
Tahreemi
for
the
sick,
the
prisoners
and
the
traveller
to
perform
Zuhr
with
Jamaat
in
a
city
before
and
after
Jumuah...”


(Ad-Durrul
Mukhtaar)




(6)
“It
is
said
in
Al-Waaljiyyah:
On
Friday
Jamaat
of
Zuhr
Salaat
should
not
be
performed
in
prison
in
a
city
nor
should
Athaan
be
given
nor
Iqaamah.”


(Raddul
Mukhtaar)




(7)
“It
is
preferred
for
the
sick,
the
musaafir
and
the
inmates
of
the
prison
to
delay
Zuhr
until
the
Imaam
(in
the
city)
has
completed
the
Jumuah
Salaat.
If
they
do
not
delay,
then
it
will
be
Makrooh
in
the
authentic
view.
So
does
it
appear
in
Al-Wajeez
of
Al-Kardawi.”


(Alamghiri)




(8)
“In
the
city
Zuhr
with
Jamaat
is
Makrooh
for
the
sick
and
others
such
as
prisoners
and
travellers,
whether
before
the
completion
of
the
Imaam
(in
the
city)
or
after
it.
And,
Zuhr
Jamaat
of
city
inhabitants
is
Makrooh
(on
Fridays)
if
they
do
not
perform
Jumuah
because
of
some
obstacle.”




(9)
(Alamghiri)
“Salaatuz
Zuhr
is
Makrooh
on
the
Day
of
Jumuah
with
Jamaat
in
the
city
in
a
prison
or
other
than
a
prison.
In
this
way
has
it
been
narrated
from
Hadhrat
Ali
(radhiyallahu
anhu),
and
in
this
manner
has
the
practice
been
constant
(down
the
ages).....”


(Al-Badaaius
Sanaa-i
and
Al-Mabsootus
Sarakhsi)




(10)
“Performance
of
Zuhr
with
Jamaat
in
the
city
on
Fridays
is
Makrooh
for
those
who
are
incapacitated
such
as
the
sick,
slaves,
travellers
and
prisoners.
This
has
been
narrated
from
Hadhrat
Ali
(radhiyallahu
anhu).
This
is
so
whether
it
is
before
Jumuah
Salaat
(of
the
city)
or
after
it.”


(Haashiyah
Tahtaawi)The
Ruling
of
the
Hanafi
Math-hab
on
this
question
should
thus
be
clearer
than
daylight
for
those
who
have
any
doubts
in
this
regard.
