اُردوEn
أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ مَعْمَرٍ ، قَالَ : حَدَّثَنَا حَبَّانُ ، قَالَ : حَدَّثَنَا أَبَانُ ، قَالَ : حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ أَبِي كَثِيرٍ ، عَنِ الْحَضْرَمِيِّ بْنِ لَاحِقٍ ، عَنْ زَيْدٍ ، عَنْ أَبِي سَلَّامٍ ، عَنِ الْحَكَمِ بْنِ مِينَاءَ ، أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ ابْنَ عَبَّاسٍ , وَابْنَ عُمَرَ يُحَدِّثَانِ ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ وَهُوَ عَلَى أَعْوَادِ مِنْبَرِهِ : " لَيَنْتَهِيَنَّ أَقْوَامٌ عَنْ وَدْعِهِمُ الْجُمُعَاتِ أَوْ لَيَخْتِمَنَّ اللَّهُ عَلَى قُلُوبِهِمْ وَلَيَكُونُنَّ مِنَ الْغَافِلِينَ " .
´It was narrated from Al-Hakam bin Mina' that:` He heard Ibn Abbas and Ibn Umar narrate that while he was on the minbar, the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: "People should stop neglecting Jumu'ah or Allah will place a seal on their hearts and they will be deemed as being among the negligent."

Explanation & Benefits
Hafiz Muhammad Ameen
1371. Commentary: The person who neglects such an important act of worship as Jumu‘ah (Friday prayer), and does so repeatedly, will also not give importance to other acts of worship, and one by one, other acts of worship will also be abandoned by him. The result of this is that the person will, in practice, become a hypocrite, and his heart will become rusted, due to which the love of Allah and the love of the Messenger of Allah (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) will be overcome (i.e., diminished). This is what is meant by the sealing (of the heart). And Allah knows best.

Commentary:
(1)
The purpose of mentioning an individual's mistake in front of everyone is so that others do not adopt their mistake and all people become alert.
(2)
The purpose of warning about a mistake without mentioning anyone's name is so that the person realizes their mistake and their honor is also preserved.
(3)
Due to certain sins, a seal can be set upon the hearts, as a result of which the ability to perform good deeds in the future may be taken away.
(4)
Abandoning congregational prayer (salah bi-jama‘ah) is such a grave sin that its punishment may be received in this world itself in the form of a seal being set upon the heart.
(5)
Heedlessness (ghaflah) means that a person no longer feels or desires what is beneficial for them, nor do they feel or fear their own loss. This is a very serious spiritual disease, due to which there is a danger that a person may lose all awareness of good and evil, and ultimately end up in Hellfire. May Allah protect us from that.
