Hadith 1593

أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بَشَّارٍ ، قال : حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى ، قال : حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْحَمِيدِ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ ، قال : حَدَّثَنِي وَهْبُ بْنُ كَيْسَانَ ، قال : " اجْتَمَعَ عِيدَانِ عَلَى عَهْدِ ابْنِ الزُّبَيْرِ فَأَخَّرَ الْخُرُوجَ حَتَّى تَعَالَى النَّهَارُ ثُمَّ خَرَجَ فَخَطَبَ فَأَطَالَ الْخُطْبَةَ , ثُمَّ نَزَلَ فَصَلَّى وَلَمْ يُصَلِّ لِلنَّاسِ يَوْمَئِذٍ الْجُمُعَةَ , فَذُكِرَ ذَلِكَ لِابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ , فَقَالَ : أَصَابَ السُّنَّةَ " .
´Wahb bin Kaisan said:` "Eid and Jumu'ah fell on the same day during the time of Ibn Az-Zubair, so he delayed going out until the sun had risen quite high. Then he went out and delivered a Khutbah, and he made the Khutbah lengthy. Then he came down and prayed, and he did not lead the people in praying jumu'ah that day. Mention of that was made to Ibn 'Abbas and he said: 'He has followed the sunnah.'"

Explanation & Benefits
Hafiz Muhammad Ameen
1593. Commentary: Here, "Sunnah" refers to concession (rukhsah). Since the concession is established by the statement of the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, it has been called Sunnah. Otherwise, your Sunnah—meaning your practice—is to perform and establish the Friday prayer (Jumu‘ah) after Eid. One should also act upon your Sunnah (i.e., practice). Although there is allowance for concession, it is for individuals, not collectively. In the narrations of Sunan Abi Dawud and Sunan Ibn Majah, it is explicitly stated that "we will establish Jumu‘ah." (Sunan Abi Dawud, al-Salat, Hadith: 1073, and Sunan Ibn Majah, Iqamat al-Salawat wa al-Sunnah fiha, Hadith: 1311), therefore, Jumu‘ah should be established.
