حَدَّثَنَا
عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ ، أَخْبَرَنَا
سُفْيَانُ ، عَنْ
سِمَاكِ بْنِ حَرْبٍ ، قَالَ : سَمِعْتُ
جَابِرَ بْنَ سَمُرَةَ ، يَقُولُ : كَانَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ
" يَجْلِسُ بَيْنَ الْخُطْبَتَيْنِ يَوْمَ الْجُمُعَةِ ، وَيَخْطُبُ قَائِمًا ، وَكَانَتْ صَلَاتُهُ قَصْدًا ، وَخُطْبَتُهُ قَصْدًا ، وَيَقْرَأُ آيَاتٍ مِنَ الْقُرْآنِ عَلَى الْمِنْبَرِ " .
It is narrated from Hazrat Jabir bin Samurah (may Allah be pleased with him) that on the day of Friday, he (the Prophet, peace be upon him) would sit while delivering the sermon, then stand up and deliver the second sermon. Then the sermon and prayer of the Prophet (peace be upon him) were moderate, and then he would recite verses of the Holy Qur'an on the pulpit.
