Please dont be ignorant.
To my knowledge, almost ALL sects in Islam and ALL countries have given the order for us to avoid public gatherings, and that includes stopping the Friday prayer. As Muslims, we are obliged to follow the authority. It is the sunnah. Please dont use excuses like 'tawakkul' or blaming the government for being corrupted to be stubborn and go to the mosque. If you want to use tawakkul as an excuse, then sorry, but you do not understand what tawakkul is. And if someone (God forbid someone close to you) passes away because he contracted the virus through you attending an infected mosque, then his death is on your shoulders. Try telling their family to have 'tawakkul' then. As for blaming the authority, then you are literally saying that the hundreds of sheikhs and imams including those of Mecca and Medina (and Iran if you're shia) worldwide are following their nafs and misguided and you, a nobody, is more purer and sound in your decision than them. And what have they got to profit?? Closure of mosques literally means that they do not get an income from your donations.
Allah's power does not increase nor decrease whether or not you attend Friday prayers, but if you do, then you are breaking the LAW and hence you risk incurring His wrath by doing so. Please think rationally. Islam is not a religion based on emotion or over-zealousness.
At first I too was upset. But please be patient in these trying times. That doesnt mean we are prevented from doing things for the sake of Allah. Do something productive and spend that 1-2 hours helping those around you that needs help instead.
