"VIRTUES OF FRIDAY" And "REWARDS OF PRAYING FRIDAY PRAYER"

Allah, the Most High, says,

“O you who believe (Muslims)! When the call is proclaimed for the Salât (prayer) on the day of Friday (Jumu’ah prayer), come to the remembrance of Allâh [Jumu'ah religious talk (Khutbah) and Salât (prayer)] and leave off business (and every other thing), that is better for you if you did but know!”
The Noble Qur’aan, Soorah Al-Jumu’ah 62:9

A Special Day Chosen By Allah:

Narrated Aboo Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him): I heard Allah’s Apostle (peace be upon him) saying, “We (Muslims) are the last (to come) but (will be) the foremost on the Day of Resurrection though the former nations were given the Holy Scriptures before us. And this was their day (Friday) the celebration of which was made compulsory for them but they differed about it. So Allah gave us the guidance for it (Friday) and all the other people are behind us in this respect: the Jews’ (holy day is) tomorrow (i.e. Saturday) and the Christians’ (is) the day after tomorrow (i.e. Sunday).”
Saheeh Bukhaari, Volume 2, Book 13, Number 1; Also Refer to Saheeh Muslim, Book 004, Number 1862

The Best Day Is Friday:

Narrated Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him):

The Apostle of Allah (may peace be upon him) said:

“The best day on which the sun has risen is Friday; on it Adam was created, on it he was made to enter Paradise, on it he was expelled from it. And the last hour will take place on no day other than Friday.”
Saheeh Muslim, Book 004, Number 1857

It Is Greater Than The Days Of ‘Eid

It was narrated that Abu Lubaabah ibn ‘Abd al-Mundhir said:

The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: “Friday is the master of days, and the greatest of them before Allaah. It is greater before Allaah than the day of al-Adha and the day of al-Fitr. It has five characteristics: on this day Allaah created Adam, on it He sent Adam down to the earth, on it Allaah caused Adam to die, on it there is a time when a person does not ask Allaah for anything but He gives it to him, so long as he does not ask for anything haraam, and on it the Hour will begin. There is no angel who is close to Allaah, no heaven, no earth, no wind, no mountain and no sea that does not fear Friday.”
Sunan Ibn Maajah, Number 1084; Classed as Hasan by Sheikh al-Albaanee, Saheeh al-Jaami’, Number 2279

Make the most of this day ! Stay Blessed !

"REWARDS OF PRAYING FRIDAY PRAYER"

"REWARDS OF PRAYING JUMMAH PRAYER"

Sins Between Two Fridays Are Forgiven

Narrated Aboo Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him):

The Prophet (peace be upon him) said, “He who took a bath and then came for Jumu’ah prayer and then prayed what was fixed for him, then kept silence till the Imam finished the sermon, and then prayed along with him, his sins between that time and the next Friday would be forgiven, and even of three days more.”
Saheeh Muslim, Book 004, Number 1867

2. Coming Early To Jumu’ah Brings Great Reward.

Narrated Aboo Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him):

The Prophet (peace be upon him) said, “Any person who takes a bath on Friday like the bath of Janaabah and then goes for the prayer (in the first hour i.e. early), it is as if he had sacrificed a camel (in Allah’s cause); and whoever goes in the second hour it is as if he had sacrificed a cow; and whoever goes in the third hour, then it is as if he had sacrificed a horned ram; and if one goes in the fourth hour, then it is as if he had sacrificed a hen; and whoever goes in the fifth hour then it is as if he had offered an egg. When the Imam comes out (i.e. starts delivering the Khuthbah), the angels present themselves to listen to the Khuthbah.”
”[(Agreed Upon); Saheeh Bukhari, Volume 2, Book 13, Number 51; Saheeh Muslim, Book 004, Number 1864]

3. The Virtue Of Walking To The Friday Prayer

Narrated Aws ibn Aws (may Allah be pleased with him):

The Prophet (peace be upon him) said: “Whoever does ghusl on Friday and causes (his wife) to do ghusl, and sets out early, and comes close to the imam and listens and keeps quiet, for every step he takes he will have the reward of fasting and praying qiyaam for one year.”
Sunan at-Tirmidhi, Number 496; Classed as Saheeh by Sheikh al-Albaanee in Saheeh Sunan at-Tirmidhi, Number 410;

Ibn al-Qayyim said, “Causes (his wife) to do ghusl” means has intercourse with his wife. This is how it was interpreted by Wakee’.”
