3 qs: 1) Is it true that you can't read Jummah in place where any salaat has been missed in last 40 days?
Question
2) Is it true that its the duty of every Muslim to invite 40 people to Islam each day? 3) Is it true that you cannot get married in first 13 (or 21) days of Saffar? I have been told these things. Please give evidence so I may correct these people. Jazakallahu-khair.
Answer
1. If in a place, all the condition for the validity of Jummu'ah exists, and then for some reason a Salaat has been missed in the past 40 days, it will still be permissible to read Jummu'ah there.
2. Every Muslim has a moral duty to invite towards whenever the circumstances are conducive to it. There is no fixed number of times. If the situations allows, one should call towards Islam for there is immerse reward in this. However, simply ignore the notion of a fixed number being compulsory.
3. One can get married on any day of the month of Safar. Ignore such superstitions.
