Two different Imaams performing the Jumuah Khutbah & Salaah


Q. Is there anything wrong if one Imaam performs the Khutbah of Jumuah and another Imaam performs the Jumuah Salaah?

A. In normal cases, it is not preferred (Khilaf Awla) for one Imaam to perform the Khutbah of Jumuah and another Imaam to perform the Jumuah Salaah. This should be avoided as far as possible. However, if it is done, it does not affect the validity of the Jumuah in any way and the Jumuah performed remains valid.
