What is the correct way to recite (silently or aloud) during the Dhuhr prayer on the Day of Arafah if it falls on a Friday, and what is the reason for this?
Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
For pilgrims on the Day of Arafah, if it falls on a Friday, the Friday prayer (Jumu'ah) is not obligatory for them. Rather, they pray Dhuhr and Asr combined and shortened, and the recitation in both prayers is to be silent.
