FIQH OF SALAHThe Friday Prayers

Abu Huraira reported Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon

him) as saying: We who are the last shall be the first on the Day of

Resurrection, except that every Ummah was given the Book before us and we were given it after them.

It was this day which Allah prescribed for us and guided us to

it and the people came after us with regard to it, the Jews

observing the next day and the Christians the day following that.

Verse from Surah al Jumuah

Friday is a special day for Muslims. Many of us say that all days are equal as all are being created by Allah. True, but still, Friday is special, it has its own merits. Refer to following hadith:

Abu Hurairah (RA) narrated that Allah’s Messenger (PBUH) said, “The best day on which the sun rises is Friday; on it Adam (AS) was created; and on it, he descended on earth; and on it, his repentance was accepted; and on it, he died; and on it, the Hour will be established…..”

Arriving early

Abu Huraira reported Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him) as saying:

When it is Friday, the angels stand at every door of the mosque and record the people in the order of their arrival, and when the Imam sits (on the pulpit for

delivering the sermon) they fold up their sheets (manuscripts of the Qur’an) and listen to the mention (of Allah). And he

who comes early is like one who offers a she-camel as a sacrifice, the next like

one who offers a cow, the next a ram, the next a hen, the next an egg.
