Friday and its virtues and problems

The seven days of the week have been almost agreed upon by every nation in every religion and in every era – however, different nations have devised different names for them – so a specific day of the week which has immense importance and virtues from time immemorial, which we Urdu And in the Arabic language it is called Friday – in Persian it is called Adina – before the emergence of Islam, the Arabs used to call it Arooba – for the first time in Arabia, the name of this day was changed from Arooba to Juma by Ka’b Ibn-i-Lawi, who Amjad, the grandfather of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, was the great-grandfather of Hazrat Abd al-Muttalib, as the Qur’an and the hadith indicate that from Adam to Hazrat Abdullah, the light of the Holy Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, was always transferred to the pure foreheads. Mr. Ka’b Ibn Lui was also not an idolater, he used to gather people around the Haram Ka’ba and give a sermon on that day. are_

This day is mentioned in the Holy Quran with the same name:
,, So Nadi for Salut from the day of Friday ,,

It is in the holy hadith that the creation of all creatures was completed on that day – on that day the King of Death collected the soil of all places and fermented it and the image of Hazrat Adam (peace be upon him) was prepared – on that day he will be admitted to Paradise and on that day he will be removed from Paradise. On the same day, his repentance was accepted and on the same day Hazrat Sayyiduna Adam (peace be upon him) died. The promise of will be fulfilled – on that day there will also be the second half of the year, on which all people will rise from their graves – even in the hadith of Mishkwat Sharif, the Holy Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: On the day of Friday, from the morning of Sadiq until sunrise, all The close angels, the earth and the sky, the winds, the mountains, even the birds, all the creatures are afraid that today may not be the day of judgment, when the sun comes out, they breathe a sigh of relief. remain oblivious to_

Allah, the Exalted, called this day Friday because on this day all Muslims gather to worship Allah. ) is when the pilgrims gather in the field of Arafat – and the meaning of Shahid is the one who is present – it refers to the gathering, that is, people gather from far and wide on the Day of Arafat – and the special blessing and mercy of Friday is that which comes to us in our house. The jingle says with jingle, O believers! Wake up from negligence, how numb and accustomed you have become to negligence, that the treasure of mercy and light has come to you, but you do not spread it to the bottom.

Virtues of Friday:
Allah, the Exalted, has chosen Friday for the worship and worship of His servants in every Shariah – the Torah mentions its mercies and greatness – but Allah, the Exalted, did not mention the worship of the Jewish people on this day. Rather, they were given the authority to make one day of the week special for worship – but their eyes could not reach this day of mercy. This is the end of what we have been blessed with due to Ghulamai Mustafa.

The Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, said:
This day is obligatory upon us, i.e. Friday, Friday, Friday, Friday.

In other words, Friday was also obligatory on the Jews and the Christians, but they disagreed about it, because the Jews chose Saturday for their worship, because on that day they were saved from Pharaoh, and the Christians chose Sunday for themselves. No one paid attention to Friday, Allah gave us its guidance, that is, the day of greatness and dignity was revealed to us and told clearly so that we do not make a mistake in our choice – and the day that the Muslims chose was Friday. And it also includes the Friday prayer – its description is as follows: Marqat has quoted a tradition from Ibn Sirin that before the Holy Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) ordered Hijrah, the Ansar of Madinah thought that when the Jews and Christians A day of worship has been fixed for him, so why don’t we also fix a similar day? On Friday, he made Sa’d Ibn Zarah the imam and performed two rak’ahs behind him. There may also be an indication that Allah, the Exalted, liked the idea of ​​my Ummah. The order for Friday had arrived. The Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, arrived at the place of Quba on Monday. He stayed there with Bani Umar and Ibn Auf until Thursday, and on Friday he decided to go to Madinah. The time of Friday came, people built a mosque there and Syed Alam, may God bless him and grant him peace, offered the Friday prayer there.

The Friday prayer is obligatory upon every Muslim, male, sane, adult, healthy and resident citizen.

There are seven conditions for Friday prayer to be valid: (1) The city has a ruler who has the authority to judge cases (2) The presence of a ruler (3) The time of Zuhr (4) The sermon is delivered within the time (5) Before the sermon. To pray and to be in such congregation as is necessary for Jumu’ah (6) The condition of congregation for Jumu’ah is that there should be at least three men besides the imam (7) General permission for the worshipers to come to the place of prayer. It should not be stopped – Friday is not wajib for the sick, travelers, children, slaves and women – but if these people read Friday, then Zuhr is paid, except for women, for whom only Zuhr is obligatory – because congregation is a condition for Jumu’ah and for women. It is forbidden to participate in the congregation of the mosque, but even their own congregation at home is abominable. Therefore, women should perform the Nafl prayer alone on Fridays instead of on Fridays.

It should not be established in the villages where there is no Friday, and it should not be forbidden where it is happening, that “Al-Awam Ka Al-Anam”, those who read only on Friday, if they are prevented from Friday, they will completely miss the remembrance of God. will become heedless – However, the villagers must perform four rak’ahs of Zuhr after Friday, otherwise they will be neglectful of Zuhr and sinners – (Anwar Al-Hadith)

Importance of Friday prayer:

Friday prayer should be observed. The Messenger of Allah, may God bless him and grant him peace, said: “Whoever misses three consecutive Friday prayers without an excuse, Allah will put a seal on his heart. He will go and there is a hadith that he should not cross the limits of Islam.

Recommended:

It is mustahab to brush, bathe, wear nice clothes, smell perfume, etc. on Friday. The Holy Prophet (PBUH) said: Whoever performs a bath on Friday and comes on Friday, then whoever is destined for prayer. Read and then sit quietly until the Imam finishes his sermon, then Allah Almighty will forgive his sins for ten days. A good deed is written on the step and a sin is erased. said:
,,Bring the dhikr, and listen to it from the imam, for man will still be separated until he ends up in Paradise, and if he enters it,

Be present in the Friday sermon, stay close to the imam, because the more distant a person is, the more he will be left behind in Paradise – even if he enters – it was learned that one should come to the mosque before the Friday sermon. On that day, the angels take a register at the door of the mosque and write down the name of each visitor one by one until when the imam leaves for the sermon, the angels close their offices and listen to the sermon with the worshipers. The name of the person is omitted from being recorded – People should learn from this hadith that the angels finish their duty in respect of the sermon and during the sermon of Ek Hum Hayin, there is noise, chatter, glances and awe. They make it their duty to sit while these actions are definitely illegal and forbidden, even answering the greeting is not ordered.

The clock is popular:

Recite Durood Sharif frequently during the times when there is no prayer, and pray in the Yazidi court with great helplessness. He does not find that he asks for anything from Allah, the Most High, but Allah, the Most High, grants him this hour of acceptance of supplication. The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) kept this hour hidden like the night of Qadr in order to attract people to worship as much as possible. But between the time of sitting and offering the prayer – secondly, that hour is at the time of sunset. In support of the first statement, there is this hadith, the Holy Prophet (peace be upon him) said:
“Between the meeting of the Imam and the request for peace.”
And in support of the second opinion, it was narrated from Hazrat Abu Hurairah that the Holy Prophet, may God bless him and grant him peace, said: One of the last three hours of Friday is such that a believer who prays in it is accepted. Hazrat Hurayrah asked Ka’b bin Akhbar about this hour, and he said, “I know this hour and it is the last hour of Friday.” Hazrat Abu Hurairah said, “How can this be?” He said, “Didn’t the Messenger of Allah, may God bless him and grant him peace, say that a person who sits while waiting for a prayer is in prayer until he prays?” Hazrat Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) said yes! He said, “It is the same hour.” So Hazrat Fatimah al-Zahra, may Allah be pleased with her, used to sit in her room at that time and would make her maidservant Fidah stand at the door.
