Chapter: What was narrated about setting out early for Friday
Hadith 1093
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو كُرَيْبٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ ، عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ بَشِيرٍ ، عَنْ قَتَادَةَ ، عَنْ الْحَسَنِ ، عَنْ سَمُرَةَ بْنِ جُنْدَبٍ ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " ضَرَبَ مَثَلَ الْجُمُعَةِ ، ثُمَّ التَّبْكِيرِ ، كَنَاحِرِ الْبَدَنَةِ ، كَنَاحِرِ الْبَقَرَةِ ، كَنَاحِرِ الشَّاةِ ، حَتَّى ذَكَرَ الدَّجَاجَةَ " .
It was narrated from Samurah bin Jundab that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) described the likeness of Friday, saying that those who come earliest are like the one who sacrifices a camel, then like one who sacrifices a cow, then like one who sacrifices a sheep, until he made mention of a chicken.
