Hadith 2695
حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي ثَنَا أَبُو عَامِرٍ عَبْدُ الْمَلِكِ بْنُ عَمْرٍو قَالَ ثَنَا زُهَيْرٌ يَعْنِي ابْنَ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَقِيلٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ يَزِيدَ الْأَنْصَارِيِّ عَنْ أَبِي لُبَابَةَ الْبَدْرِيِّ بْنِ عَبْدِ الْمُنْذِرِ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: ((سَيِّدُ الْأَيَّامِ يَوْمُ الْجُمُعَةِ وَأَعْظَمُهَا عِنْدَ اللَّهِ تَعَالَى، وَأَعْظَمُ عِنْدَ اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ مِنْ يَوْمِ الْفِطْرِ وَيَوْمِ الْأَضْحَى وَفِيهِ خَمْسُ خِلَالٍ: خَلَقَ اللَّهُ فِيهِ آدَمَ، وَأَهْبَطَ اللَّهُ فِيهِ آدَمَ إِلَى الْأَرْضِ، وَفِيهِ تَوَفَّى اللَّهُ آدَمَ، وَفِيهِ سَاعَةٌ لَا يَسْأَلُ الْعَبْدُ فِيهَا شَيْئًا إِلَّا آتَاهُ اللَّهُ تَبَارَكَ وَتَعَالَى إِيَّاهُ، مَالَمْ يَسْأَلْ حَرَامًا وَفِيهِ تَقُومُ السَّاعَةُ، مَا مِنْ مَلَكٍ مُقَرَّبٍ وَلَا سَمَاءٍ وَلَا أَرْضٍ وَلَا رِيَاحٍ وَلَا جِبَالٍ وَلَا بَحْرٍ إِلَّا هُنَّ يُشْفِقْنَ مِنْ يَوْمِ الْجُمُعَةِ))
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abul-Laba Badri bin Abd al-Mundhir, may Allah be pleased with him, that the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said: The day of Jumu’ah is the chief and the greatest of days in the sight of Allah Almighty. In fact, it is greater in the sight of Allah than the days of Eid al-Fitr and Eid al-Adha. There are five characteristics in it: (1) Allah Almighty created Adam (peace be upon him) on this day, (2) on this day He sent him down to the earth, (3) and on this day He caused him to die, (4) in it there is an hour in which, if a servant asks Allah Almighty for anything, He grants it to him, as long as he does not ask for something unlawful, and (5) on this day the Resurrection will be established. This is the reason that the close angels, the heavens, the earth, the winds, the mountains, and the seas—all of them fear the day of Jumu’ah (lest the Resurrection be established on this very Friday).
Hadith 2696
عَنْ سَعْدِ بْنِ عُبَادَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ أَنَّ رَجُلًا مِنَ الْأَنْصَارِ أَتَى النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَقَالَ: أَخْبِرْنَا عَنْ يَوْمِ الْجُمُعَةِ، مَاذَا فِيهِ مِنَ الْخَيْرِ؟ قَالَ: ((فِيهِ خَمْسُ خِلَالٍ، … )) فَذَكَرَ مِثْلَهُ
Sayyiduna Sa’d bin ‘Ubadah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that an Ansari came to the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and said: Tell me about the day of Jumu’ah, what virtues does it have? The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: It has five virtues, ... . As in the previous narration.
Hadith 2697
عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ أَنَّهُ قَالَ: خَرَجْتُ إِلَى الطُّورِ فَلَقِيتُ كَعْبَ الْأَخْبَارِ فَجَلَسْتُ مَعَهُ فَحَدَّثَنِي عَنِ التَّوْرَاةِ وَحَدَّثْتُهُ عَنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَكَانَ فِيمَا حَدَّثْتُهُ أَنْ قُلْتُ: إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: ((خَيْرُ يَوْمٍ طَلَعَتْ فِيهِ الشَّمْسُ يَوْمُ الْجُمُعَةِ، فِيهِ خُلِقَ آدَمُ وَفِيهِ أُهْبِطَ وَفِيهِ تُوبَ عَلَيْهِ وَفِيهِ مَاتَ وَفِيهِ تَقُومُ السَّاعَةُ، وَمَا مِنْ دَابَّةٍ إِلَّا وَهِيَ مُسِيخَةٌ يَوْمَ الْجُمُعَةِ مِنْ حِينَ تُصْبِحُ حَتَّى تَطْلُعَ الشَّمْسُ شَفَقًا مِنَ السَّاعَةِ إِلَّا الْجِنَّ وَالْإِنْسِ وَفِيهِ سَاعَةٌ لَا يُصَادِفُهَا عَبْدٌ مُسْلِمٌ وَهُوَ يُصَلِّي يَسْأَلُ اللَّهَ شَيْئًا إِلَّا أَعْطَاهُ إِيَّاهُ))، قَالَ كَعْبٌ: ذَلِكَ فِي كُلِّ سَنَةٍ مَرَّةً، فَقُلْتُ: بَلْ فِي كُلِّ جُمُعَةٍ، فَقَرَأَ كَعْبٌ التَّوْرَاةَ، فَقَالَ: صَدَقَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ، قَالَ أَبُو هُرَيْرَةَ: ثُمَّ لَقِيتُ عَبْدَ اللَّهِ بْنَ سَلَامٍ فَحَدَّثْتُهُ بِمَجْلِسِي مَعَ كَعْبٍ وَمَا حَدَّثْتُهُ فِي يَوْمِ الْجُمُعَةِ، فَقُلْتُ لَهُ: قَالَ كَعْبٌ: ذَلِكَ فِي كُلِّ سَنَةٍ يَوْمٌ، قَالَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ سَلَامٍ: كَذَبَ كَعْبٌ، ثُمَّ قَرَأَ كَعْبٌ التَّوْرَاةَ، فَقَالَ: بَلْ هِيَ فِي كُلِّ جُمُعَةٍ، قَالَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ سَلَامٍ: صَدَقَ كَعْبٌ
Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) says: I went towards the mountain and met Ka'b al-Ahbar. I sat with him; he narrated to me things from the Torah and I narrated to him the hadiths of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him). I also told him that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: The best day on which the sun rises is Friday. On this day Adam (peace be upon him) was created, on this day he was sent down (to earth), on this day his repentance was accepted, on this day he passed away, and on this day the Resurrection will be established. On this day, from morning until sunrise, every creature listens attentively out of fear of the Resurrection, except jinn and mankind. On this day there is an hour in which, whatever Muslim prays to Allah Almighty, He grants it to him. Ka'b said: This hour occurs once in a year. I said: Rather, it occurs every Friday. Then Ka'b read the Torah and said: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) has spoken the truth (it really does occur every Friday). Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) says: Then I met Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Salam (may Allah be pleased with him). I told him about my gathering with Ka'b and the discussion about Friday that took place in it, and said that Ka'b said this hour occurs once in a year. Upon hearing this, Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Salam said that Ka'b was mistaken. I said: Yes, then he read the Torah and said that indeed it occurs every Friday. Upon hearing this, he said: Ka'b has spoken the truth.

عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَمْرِو (بْنِ الْعَاصِ) عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: ((مَا مِنْ مُسْلِمٍ يَمُوتُ يَوْمَ الْجُمُعَةِ أَوْ لَيْلَةَ الْجُمُعَةِ إِلَّا وَقَاهُ اللَّهُ فِتْنَةَ القَبْرِ))
Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Amr bin al-As (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Whoever among the Muslims dies on the day or night of Friday, Allah Almighty will protect him from the trial of the grave.
Hadith 2699
عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ: قِيلَ لِلنَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ: لِأَيِّ شَيْءٍ سُمِّيَ يَوْمُ الْجُمُعَةِ؟ قَالَ: ((لِأَنَّ فِيهَا طُبِعَتْ طِينَةُ أَبِيكَ آدَمَ وَفِيهَا الصَّعْقَةُ وَالْبَعْثَةُ وَفِيهَا الْبَطْشَةُ وَفِي آخِرِ ثَلَاثِ سَاعَاتٍ مِنْهَا سَاعَةٌ مَنْ دَعَا اللَّهَ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ فِيهَا اسْتُجِيبَ لَهُ))
Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that a man asked the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him): What is the reason for naming Friday as Jumu’ah? The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) replied: (It is called Jumu’ah because) on this day the clay of your father Adam (peace be upon him) was created, and on this day will be the Sa’qah (the great blast), the Ba’thah (the resurrection), and the Batshah (the great seizure), and in the last three hours of this day there is an hour in which, whoever supplicates to Allah Almighty, his supplication will be accepted.
Hadith 2700
عَنْ أَبِي الدَّرْدَاءِ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ: ((يَا أَبَا الدَّرْدَاءِ! لَا تَخْتَصِّ لَيْلَةَ الْجُمُعَةِ بِقِيَامٍ دُونَ اللَّيَالِي وَلَا يَوْمَ الْجُمُعَةِ بِصِيَامٍ دُونَ الْأَيَّامِ))
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Darda’ (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Abu Darda’! Do not single out the night of Friday from among other nights for standing (in prayer), nor single out the day of Friday from among other days for fasting.
