FRIDAY PRAYER FOR THE PEOPLE WHO DO NOT GET RUKUK WITH THE IMAM IN THE SECOND RAKAAT

A COMPARATIVE STUDY BETWEEN THE HANAFI AND AL-SYAFI'I SCHOOLS

Abstract

The Friday prayers must perform in the jamaah (congregation), so it is not valid if someone does not get the jamaah, but ulemas differ on the criteria of it. According to Hanafi scholars, a person is considered in congregation prayer, even if only at the end of the Friday prayer. Meanwhile, according to the ulemas of the al-Syafi'ī school, a person is considered in the congregation if he has time to bow with the imam in the second rak'ah. The author examines the opinions and istinbat methods used by these two schools of thought with a comparative approach. It found that these two schools used the lughawiyyah method of istinbat, but the Hanafi school also used the causation method (ta'līlī). Each school adheres to the Hadith but differs in the editorial and transmission lines so that different interpretations. On the other hand, the Hanafi school of thought performs the qiyās of the Friday prayer with the traveler's prayer, that is, from the point of view of participating in the prayer of the imam together.
