Can the Imām offer the Salāt (prayer) with only those who are present (for the prayer)? And can he deliver a Khutba (religious talk) on Friday if it is raining?

670. Narrated Anas bin Sīrīn: I heard Anas رضي الله عنه saying, "A man from Anṣār said to the Prophet ﷺ, 'I cannot offer Aṣ-Ṣalāt (the prayer) with you (in congregation).' He was a very fat man and he prepared a meal for the Prophet ﷺ and invited him to his house. He spread out a mat for the Prophet ﷺ, and washed one of its sides with water, and the Prophet ﷺ offered two Rak'ā prayers on it." A man from the family of Al-Jarūd asked, "Did the Prophet ﷺ used to offer the Duha (forenoon) prayer?" Anas said, "I did not see him offering the Duha prayer except on that day."

670 - حَدَّثَنَا آدَمُ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا أَنَسُ بْنُ سِيرِينَ، قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ أَنَسَ بْنَ مَالِكٍ، يَقُولُ: قَالَ رَجُلٌ مِنَ الأَنْصَارِ: إِنِّي لاَ أَسْتَطِيعُ الصَّلاَةَ مَعَكَ، وَكَانَ رَجُلًا ضَخْمًا، «فَصَنَعَ لِلنَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ طَعَامًا، فَدَعَاهُ إِلَى مَنْزِلِهِ، فَبَسَطَ لَهُ حَصِيرًا، وَنَضَحَ طَرَفَ الحَصِيرِ فَصَلَّى عَلَيْهِ رَكْعَتَيْنِ»، فَقَالَ رَجُلٌ مِنْ آلِ الجَارُودِ لِأَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ: أَكَانَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يُصَلِّي الضُّحَى؟ قَالَ: مَا رَأَيْتُهُ صَلَّاهَا إِلَّا يَوْمَئِذٍ
