===Minimum Distance between Two Friday Prayers===
===Minimum Distance between Two Friday Prayers===
Another condition for the Friday prayer, which Shi'a faqihs and most of other Islamic sects have mentioned, is that there must be a minimum distance between two Friday prayers, or there must not be two Friday prayers in one city. According to Shi'a faqihs at least the distance of one [[farsakh]] (~5 Km) must be between two Friday prayers, if the condition is not fulfilled, the latter Friday prayer is void.<ref>Al-Husayni al-'Amili, ''Miftah al-kirama'', vol. 2, p. 130-135; al-Najafi, ''Jawahir al-kalam'', vol. 11, p. 245</ref>
