AbuHurayrah |
Transmitted by Sahih Bukhari |
| The Prophet
(Sal-allahu-aleihi-wassallam) said, "When it is a Friday, the angels stand at the
gate of the mosque and keep on writing the names of the persons coming to the mosque in
succession according to their arrivals. The example of the one who enters the mosque in
the earliest hour is that of one offering a camel (in sacrifice). The one coming next is
like one offering a cow and then a ram and then a chicken and then an egg respectively.
When the Imam comes out (for Jumua prayer) they (i.e. angels) fold their papers and listen
to the Khutba." [Vol 2:#51] |

(Sal-allahu-aleihi-wassallam) 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. |

Narrated by Abdullah ibn Amr ibn al-'As |
Transmitted by Abu Dawud |
| The Prophet
(Sal-allahu-aleihi-wassallam) said: Three types of people attend Friday prayer; One is
present in a frivolous way and that is all he gets from it; another comes with a
supplication, Allah may grant or refuse his request as He wishes; another is present
silently and quietly with-out stepping over a Muslim or annoying anyone, and that is an
atonement for his sins till the next Friday and three days more, the reason being that
Allah, the Exalted, says: "He who does a good deed will have ten times as much" |

Narrated by Jabir ibn Abdullah |
Transmitted by Abu Dawud |
| The Prophet
(Sal-allahu-aleihi-wassallam) said: Friday is divided into twelve hours. Amongst them
there is an hour in which a Muslim does not ask Allah for anything but He gives it to him.
So seek it in the last hour after the afternoon prayer. |
