How many conditions are there for Jum'ah's being “Waajib”
Answer:
There are eleven conditions for the essentiality of Jum'ah. Absence of even a single condition will obviate the obligation. However, prayer will be accomplished if offered.
(1) Believer must be resident,
(2) Healthy; Jum'ah prayer is not obligatory upon such a sick who cannot go to mosque or his condition further worsens or if he is certain that it will delay recovery,
(3) Free,
(4) Male,
(5) Mature,
(6) Sane. Maturity and sanity are not conditional for only Jum'ah but also for every kind of worship,
(7) Having eye-sight. Jum'ah prayer is not obligatory on blind. But it is obligatory upon that blind who is present in mosque having ablution at the time of Azaan.
(8) One who is able to walk. Jum'ah is not obligatory upon handicapped,
(9) Not to be prisoner,
(10) Be free from fear of ruler or thief or any tyrant and
(11) It is not raining or hailing or there is wind or cold to such an extent that it may harm.
