The answer

It clarifies that the fundamental principle is the obligation to attend Friday prayer unless there is an excuse. One may be permitted to miss it due to work if the individual is compelled to work and cannot find any other job, and fears harm if they delay repaying their debt. However, if they have the option to leave work and do not fear harm, then they are not permitted to continue working.
