When on Fridays the call is made for (Jumu‘a) Prayer, hasten towards the remembrance of Allah

It was also narrated (by al-Bukhaari) that the Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: “The best day on which the sun rises is Friday. On this day Adam was created, on this day he entered Paradise and on this day he was expelled from it.” (Narrated by Muslim, al-Jumu’ah, 1410)

It was narrated that Abu Hurayrah said: The Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: “We (Muslims) are the last (of the nations) but (we will be) the foremost on the Day of Resurrection, although the former nations were given their scriptures before us and we were given our after them. And this (hasten towards the remembrance of Allah ) is the day concerning which they disputed. So Allaah guided us (to it), tomorrow (i.e., Saturday) is for the Jews and the day after (i.e., Sunday) is for the Christians.” (Narrated by al-Bukhaari, al-Jumu’ah, 847).


O believers! When on Fridays the call is made for (Jumu‘a) Prayer, hasten towards the remembrance of Allah (i.e., the Jumu‘a sermon and Prayer) immediately and abandon purchase and sale (i.e., business). That is better for you if you have knowledge.
Quran. 62:9

اے ایمان والو! جب جمعہ کے دن (جمعہ کی) نماز کے لئے اذان دی جائے تو فوراً اللہ کے ذکر (یعنی خطبہ و نماز) کی طرف تیزی سے چل پڑو اور خرید و فروخت (یعنی کاروبار) چھوڑ دو۔ یہ تمہارے حق میں بہتر ہے اگر تم علم رکھتے ہو

ஈமான் கொண்டவர்களே! ஜுமுஆ உடைய நாளில் தொழுகைக்காக நீங்கள் அழைக்கப்பட்டால், வியாபாரத்தை விட்டுவிட்டு, அல்லாஹ்வைத் தியானிக்க (பள்ளிக்கு) விரைந்து செல்லுங்கள் - நீங்கள் அறிபவர்களாக இருப்பின் இதுவே உங்களுக்கு மிக மேலான நன்மையுடையதாகும்.

Abandon Argumentation

The Prophet (sal Allahu alaihi wa sallam) said: “The believer does not dispute and I will not intercede on the Day of Resurrection for those who dispute, so leave arguing for its lack of good.” [Tabaraani]

Allah, the Most High, says in this regard, “None dispute in the Aayaat (signs, proofs) of Allah except those who disbelieve.” [Surah Ghaafir, Ayat 4]

Ibn Umar (radi Allahu anhu) used to hate disputation as did Malik ibn Anas and those greater and lesser than him right up to this day.

A man came to al-Hasan al-Basri and said, “I wish to debate with you about the Religion.” Al-Hasan replied, “I know my Religion. If you have lost your Religion go out and look for it!” [Al-Aajurree in ash-Sharee’ah]

[Then] Owais Al Qarni- A story of the value of a mother

This story is not about a woman, but a story about a man who cared for his mother and the value that Islam gives to mothers. It is one of my favorite stories. Owais was the only man who was mentioned by name by the Prophet ﷺ without him having met him. Even Mohammed al Fatih, who was mentioned by the Prophet ﷺ, was not mentioned by name, just by his victory. What did Owais do that was so great? He took care of his mother. This is the story of Owais.

…………………………………….

One day, Omar ibn Khattab, Abu Bakr, Ali and other companions were sitting with the Prophet ﷺ at the mosque when the Prophet ﷺ said to them, “Tomorrow, a man will enter from this door to pray among you and he will be from the people of Paradise.”

Abu Huraira relates that the next day he hurried to Fajr prayer at the Mosque and lined up in the first row in hopes that he would be the man that the Prophet ﷺ was referring to the day before. There were many other Companions standing alongside him who also had the same idea. The Prophet ﷺ conducted Fajr prayer and sat down. The Companions were eager to know who this man of Paradise was, but it didn’t seem the Prophet ﷺ was going to mention it. So they sat and waited for a while and some of them had to go, but others still waited. These included Abu Huraira, Abu Bakr, Ali, and Umar.

Just then walked in a man, who was so poor his clothes were dirty and torn. The Prophet ﷺ immediately stood up and smiled from ear to ear and welcomed the man. The man asked the Prophet ﷺ to pray for him. The Prophet ﷺ raised his hands in duaa and said, “Oh Allah please grant this man a position in the highest levels of Paradise, Al Ferdous, with me.” So then when the man left, Abu Huraira asked the Prophet ﷺ,”Was that him?!” “Yes,” replied the Prophet ﷺ.
