What one should do if he passed wind during the Jumu‘ah prayer

Question

If one who is offering the two Rak‘ahs of Jumu‘ah prayer passes wind, what should he do? May Allaah The Exalted Reward you.

Answer

All perfect praise be to Allaah, The Lord of the Worlds. I testify that there is none worthy of worship except Allaah, and that Muhammad, sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam, is His Slave and Messenger.

The one who passes wind during the Jumu‘ah prayer has to stop the prayer and then perform a new ablution so he may catch the prayer with the congregation. Otherwise, he has to offer the Thuhr prayer and he is forgiven for it is out of his control.

Allaah Knows best.
