When People are Unable to Perform the Jumu'ah salaah

Q: Salaah-522: Because there was no place in the Masjid, some people did not perform their Jumu'ah salaah. When they then decided to perform their Zuhr salaah in Jamaa'ah in the Masjid, the Imaam told them that a second Jamaa'ah cannot be made in the same Masjid and that they should perform their Zuhr salaah individually. Is this correct? Can a second Jamaa'ah not be made? What should people do if they miss the Jumu'ah salaah?

Answer: It is Makrooh Tahreemi for people to perform a second Jamaa'ah if they miss the Jumu'ah salaah. They may however perform the Jumu'ah salaah in a place where the Jumu'ah salaah was not performed. If they have to perform the Zuhr salaah, they will have to do so individually. It is forbidden to perform the Zuhr salaah in Jamaa'ah in a place where the Jumu'ah salaah is performed. Zuhr will be performed in Jamaa'ah only in areas where the Jumu'ah salaah cannot be performed. And Allaah knows best what is most correct.
