It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Qatadah, may Allah be pleased with him, with the same chain, that the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "It is not obligatory upon women to participate in war, attend Friday prayer, or accompany funeral processions."

Narrated Tariq ibn Shihab: The Prophet ﷺ said: The Friday prayer in congregation is a necessary duty for every Muslim, with four exceptions; a slave, a woman, a boy, and a sick person. Abu Dawud said: Tariq bin Shihab had seen the Prophet ﷺ but not heard anything from him.

1067. Commentary: ➊ In Al-Mustadrak al-Hakim, this hadith is narrated by Tariq bin Shihab through Abu Musa radi Allahu anhu. Hafiz Ibn Hajar rahimahullah has stated that several hadith scholars have declared it authentic. See: [نيل الأوطار : 258/3] ➋ This hadith is absolute and general, and it indicates that performing Jumu‘ah (Friday prayer) is obligatory even in villages and similar places. Furthermore, there is no authentic evidence in the Qur’an or hadith which shows that performing Jumu‘ah in villages is not permissible. The statement of those who claim otherwise is rejected, contrary to the Qur’an, and against the practice of the noble Companions radi Allahu anhum ajma‘in. ➌ The generality of the Noble Qur’an also supports this. Allah the Exalted says: «يَاأَيُّهَاالَّذِينَآمَنُواإِذَانُودِيَلِلصَّلَاةِمِنيَوْمِالْجُمُعَةِفَاسْعَوْاإِلَىٰذِكْرِاللَّـهِوَذَرُواالْبَيْعَ»[الجمعة : 9] In response to a question, Umar al-Faruq radi Allahu anhu wrote «جمعوا حيث كنتم»: “Wherever you are, perform Jumu‘ah.” [مصنف ابن أبى شيبة، حديث : 5068]

Narrated Tariq bin Shihab (RA): Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said: "The Friday prayer in congregation is an obligatory duty upon every Muslim, with the exception of four: a slave, a woman, a child and a sick person." [Reported by Abu Dawud, who said that Tariq did not hear (any Hadith) from the Prophet (ﷺ)]. al-Hakim also reported it from the narration of the aforementioned Tariq, who narrated from Abu Musa.
Explanation: This hadith proves that Friday prayer (Jumu‘ah) is not obligatory upon slaves, women, children, and the sick. If they do perform it, then they do not have to offer the Zuhr (noon) prayer; otherwise, they will perform the Zuhr prayer.
