The answer

Traveling on Friday is not permissible after the second call to prayer, due to Allah's saying: (O you who have believed, when [the adhan] is called for the prayer on the day of Jumu’ah, then proceed to the remembrance of Allah and leave trade). However, if the travel is before the adhan, if the traveler will pray Jumu’ah on his way, then there is no harm. If he cannot perform it on his way, some scholars disliked it, others prohibited it, and a third group permitted it. The best course of action is not to travel unless there is a necessity, such as missing a travel group or a flight time.
