The answer

This illness is generally not considered an excuse for missing Friday prayers and congregational prayers, nor does it waive the obligation of Hajj or maintaining kinship ties, unless the illness reaches a degree of inability. Hajj is obligatory for those who are able, and attendance at Friday and congregational prayers is waived by an illness that makes going difficult. Furthermore, this illness is not a legal impediment to marriage. It is advisable to consult a doctor to determine the extent of the illness's impact on various activities, such as Hajj.
