HOW MANY PEOPLE SHOULD HAVE A FRIDAY PRAYER?
Although all scholars agree that congregation is necessary for the Friday prayer to be valid, they differed about the minimum number required.
In order for the Friday prayer to be performed, there should be at least three people apart from the imam according to Imam Abu Hanifa and Imam Muhammad, and two people according to Abu Yusuf (Ibn al-Hümam, Feth, II, 58).
