Question

What is the ruling on cancelling jummah prayers due to the corona virus?

Answer

We strongly disagree with this. There is no basis for this. Whoever has cancelled the Jumuah will be answerable to Allah Ta`ala for this.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.

Fatawa SA is an independent, read-only index of fatawa already published by Mufti Online — Madrasah Ta'leemuddeen. It is not a fatwa service. For your own situation, ask the issuing Darul Ifta directly.
