أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو سَعِيدٍ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ مُوسَى بْنِ الْفَضْلِ، ثنا أَبُو الْعَبَّاسِ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَعْقُوبَ، ثنا الْعَبَّاسُ بْنُ الْوَلِيدِ بْنِ مَزْيَدَ، أَخْبَرَنِي أَبِي، ثنا ابْنُ جَابِرٍ، حَدَّثَنِي عَطَاءٌ الْخُرَسَانِيُّ، عَنْ مَوْلًى لِامْرَأَتِهِ أُمِّ عُثْمَانَ قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ عَلِيًّا رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ عَلَى الْمِنْبَرِ يَقُولُ: " إِذَا كَانَ يَوْمُ الْجُمُعَةِ غَدَتِ الشَّيَاطِينُ بِرَايَاتِهَا إِلَى الْأَسْوَاقِ يَأْخُذُونَ النَّاسَ الرَّبَائِثَ، وَيُذَكِّرُونَهُمُ الْحَوَائِجَ، وَيُثَبِّطُونَهُمْ عَنِ الْجُمُعَةِ، وَتَغْدُو الْمَلَائِكَةُ بِرَايَاتِهَا إِلَى الْمَسَاجِدِ يَكْتُبُونَ عَلَى رَجُلٍ السَّاعَةَ الَّتِي جَاءَ فِيهَا، فُلَانٌ جَاءَ مِنْ سَاعَةٍ، فُلَانٌ مِنْ سَاعَتَيْنِ، فَإِذَا الرَّجُلُ جَلَسَ مَجْلِسًا يَسْتَمْكِنُ فِيهِ مِنَ الِاسْتِمَاعِ وَالنَّظَرِ وَأَنْصَتَ وَلَمْ يَلْغُ كَانَ لَهُ كِفْلَانِ مِنَ الْأَجْرِ، وَإِذَا جَلَسَ فِيهِ مَجْلِسًا فَنَأَى وَأَنْصَتَ وَلَمْ يَلْغُ كَانَ لَهُ كِفْلٌ مِنَ الْأَجْرِ، وَمَنْ جَلَسَ مَجْلِسًا يَسْتَمْكِنُ فِيهِ مِنَ الِاسْتِمَاعِ وَالنَّظَرِ فَلَغَا وَلَمْ يُنْصِتْ كَانَ عَلَيْهِ كِفْلَانِ. أَوْ قَالَ: كِفْلٌ مِنْ وِزْرٍ، وَمَنْ قَالَ لِأَخِيهِ يَوْمَ الْجُمُعَةِ: صَهْ، فَقَدْ لَغَا، وَمَنْ لَغَا فَلَيْسَ لَهُ مِنْ جَمَعْتِهِ شَيْءٌ. ثُمَّ يَقُولُ فِي آخِرِ ذَلِكَ: قَدْ سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَهُوَ يَقُولُ ذَلِكَ ". أَخْرَجَهُ أَبُو دَاوُدَ فِي كِتَابِ السُّنَنِ.
The freed slave of Umm Uthman (may Allah be pleased with her) says that I heard Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) say while he was on the pulpit: "When it is Friday, the devils go out to the markets with their banners; they hold people back with hindrances, remind them of their needs and keep them back from the Friday prayer. And early in the morning the angels go out with their banners to the doors of the mosque, and they write that such-and-such a man came at such-and-such an hour, and so-and-so came at such-and-such an hour. When a man sits in his place, listens attentively to the sermon and does not engage in idle talk, he has a double reward. When he sits in his place and is far away, remains silent and does not engage in idle talk, he has a single reward. And when a man stays in his place and listens attentively to the sermon as far as he can, but engages in idle talk and does not remain silent, he bears a double punishment, or he said: he bears a burden. And whoever says to his companion on Friday: Stop, has also engaged in idle talk, and whoever engages in idle talk has no Friday prayer." At the end of it is: I heard the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him); he (peace and blessings be upon him) was saying this.
أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو زَكَرِيَّا بْنُ أَبَى إِسْحَاقَ الْمُزَكِّي وَغَيْرُهُ قَالُوا: ثنا أَبُو الْعَبَّاسِ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَعْقُوبَ، أنبأ الرَّبِيعُ بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ، أنبأ الشَّافِعِيُّ، أنبا مَالِكٌ، ح وَأَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو أَحْمَدَ الْمِهْرَجَانِيُّ، أنبا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ الْمُزَكِّي، ثنا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ الْعَبْدِيُّ، أنبأ ابْنُ بُكَيْرٍ، ثنا مَالِكٌ، عَنْ أَبِي النَّضْرِ مَوْلَى عُمَرَ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللهِ عَنْ مَالِكِ بْنِ أَبِي عَامِرٍ، أَنَّ عُثْمَانَ بْنَ عَفَّانَ، رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ كَانَ يَقُولُ فِي خُطْبَتِهِ قَلَّمَا يَدَعُ ذَلِكَ إِذَا خَطَبَ: " إِذَا قَامَ الْإِمَامُ يَخْطُبُ يَوْمَ الْجُمُعَةِ فَاسْتَمِعُوا وَأَنْصِتُوا فَإِنَّ لِلْمُنْصِتِ الَّذِي لَا يَسْمَعُ فِي الْحَظِّ مِثْلَ مَا لِلسَّامِعِ الْمُنْصِتِ، فَإِذَا قَامَتِ الصَّلَاةُ فَاعْدِلُوا الصُّفُوفَ وَحَاذُوا بِالْمَنَاكِبِ فَإِنَّ اعْتِدَالَ الصُّفُوفِ مِنْ تَمَامِ الصَّلَاةِ، ثُمَّ لَا يُكَبِّرُ حَتَّى يَأْتِيَهُ رِجَالٌ قَدْ وَكَّلَهُمْ بِتَسْوِيَةِ الصُّفُوفِ فَيُخْبِرُونَهُ أَنْ قَدِ اسْتَوَتْ، فَيُكَبِّرُ ".
Malik bin Abi Amir narrates from Uthman bin Affan (may Allah be pleased with him) that he used to say in his sermon, and he seldom left it out whenever he delivered a sermon: When the imam stands to deliver the sermon on Friday, listen attentively and remain silent, for the one who remains silent but cannot hear (the sermon) has a share (of reward) like that of the one who listens and remains silent. When the iqamah is called, straighten the rows and align your shoulders, for "straightening the rows is part of the completion of the prayer." Then he would not say the takbir until those who had been appointed to straighten the rows informed him that the rows had been straightened; when they informed him that the rows were straight, then he would begin the prayer.
أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو سَعِيدِ بْنُ أَبِي عَمْرٍو، ثنا أَبُو الْعَبَّاسِ، أنبأ الرَّبِيعُ، أنبأ الشَّافِعِيُّ، أنبا إِبْرَاهِيمُ، عَنْ هِشَامٍ، عَنِ الْحَسَنِ " أَنَّهُ كَانَ لَا يَرَى بَأْسًا أَنْ يَذْكُرَ اللهَ فِي نَفْسِهِ تَكْبِيرًا وَتَهْلِيلًا وَتَسْبِيحًا. قَالَ: وَأَنْبَأَ قَالَ: لَا أَعْلَمُ إِلَّا أَنَّ مَنْصُورَ بْنَ الْمُعْتَمِرِ أَخْبَرَنِي أَنَّهُ سَأَلَ إِبْرَاهِيمَ: أَتَقْرَأُ وَالْإِمَامُ يَخْطُبُ يَوْمَ الْجُمُعَةِ؟ فَقَالَ: " عَسَى أَنْ لَا يَضُرَّكَ ".
It is narrated from al-Hasan (may Allah have mercy on him) that he saw no harm in a person remembering Allah within himself (during the sermon) with takbir, tahlil and tasbih.
Mansur bin al-Mu'tamir (may Allah have mercy on him) asked Ibrahim (may Allah have mercy on him): Do you recite while the imam is delivering the sermon on Friday? He said: Perhaps it will not harm you.
