THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. YawmulJumuat. 25th day of Sha’abaan, 1444AH (Friday 17th March 2023). *_MISSING JUMUAT AND OFFERING ZUHUR SALAAT_*. BismilLah
AlhamdulilLah, for granting us another blessed day of the week. It's important we set our priorities this morning right before we leave our homes for our daily sustenance. We must have within our agenda the intention to go to the masjid for the jumuat salaat and, more importantly, get to the masjid early before the imam arrives. When you enter the masjid, offer your two rakaats greetings of the masjid, then sit down, reciting your suuratul kahf or salutations to the Prophet sallallahu alaiyhi wassallam till the imam comes. As soon as the imam says Assalaamu Alaikum warahmatullah and you respond, we are to listen to the imam silently without any act, or else we lose our share of the rewards of the jumuat. Switch off your phone and sit silently and attentively as if you are offering salaat. There is no specific dua when the imam pauses after the first part of the Khutbah. You can recite any dua you wish till the imam stand up to continue.
If a person comes to the masjid where he usually prays and finds that he has missed the jumuat, and he thinks that people in other masjids are about to finish and leave, and he does not think that there is any mosque nearby in which Jumu‘ah prayers are still going on, then he should offer Zuhr and in shaa ALLAAH with hope of gaining jumuat rewards.
But if you know that the masjid where you usually pray does the prayer before other mosques, then strive to get the Jumuat from the other masjids if not then pray 4 rakaats zuhur alone hoping for ALLAH to accept it with Jumuat rewards.
Please remember to take your ghusul before leaving for masjid or for work if you can't get back home to bathe before going to masjid.
*_May ALLAH (Ar-Razzaaq, The Provider of Wealth and Sustenance) have mercy on us all and answer our dua_*. Aameen.
