Abdur Rahman ibn Yusuf Mangera – Hadith Series What to do on Friday

Imam Bukhari narrates that Salman al Farsi Radi Allahu Anhu said the

Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said Allah will forgive the

sins of the past week for he who on Friday on Juba, takes the whole

Salah bath, cleanses himself puts on his perfume

or any perfume available in the house.

Then he goes out to jewel, our prayer does not try to separate

between two friends, two people, two friends, he doesn't come and

sit in between two people I want to sit here that he's has some

courtesy in that regard.

Then he prays wherever he can find the place and then listens to the

Imam.

This is Allah will forgive the sins of the past week according to

this narration. Now, how many of us are missing the Sunnah on

Fridays? Why? Because we don't have we don't wear at work.

So Friday becomes like any other day for most of us.

SubhanAllah. So how do we achieve this?

The way to do it is probably to get up a bit earlier on Friday

morning and to wear a different type of clothing on that day.

Something that would be appropriate at work as well. But

just for the sake of Friday, it's Friday. So even the people at work

know that it's your Friday, to have that listed in the morning

before you go specifically for Friday. When these people have

also been in the morning, this is specifically for Friday. And if

that's too early in the morning, then Thursday night, because

according to some scholars the virtues of all of this start from

mechanic time on Thursday night. So if you have a bath after, even

at nighttime, it's okay for the next day, though, the best thing

is to actually be able to pray with the bath that you had, with

that purity. To be able to make a Juma prayer, that's the best but

it's may be difficult for people who are working.

The other option is I've had a number of friends who what they

used to do is that they used to just add additional hours in the

weekday sometimes and then take off Friday afternoon or take off

two hours extra on Friday or something like that and make them

up other time. So if you've got that flexibility, then this is a

very honorable thing to do. Because Friday is a special day in

that sense. Joomla Mobarak is not enough.

That's just the new, you know, that's just a new innovation.

Not saying It's haram to say whatever but at the end of the

day, if that's the only thing you're talking about re sending

everybody text messages on Friday, Juma Mubarak brothers sister you

know, whatever, then that's not really this is the Sunnah. So this

is what should be happening. In fact, in the beginning of Islam,

it was necessary on Friday. Why urge him to have a bath,

but later on, it became abrogated.
