DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDER. Yawmul Jumuat, 7th day of Swafar 1447AH, Friday, 1st August 2025.
*_THE VIRTUES OF THIS BLESSED DAY_*. BismilLah.
ALHAMDULILLAH for granting us another blessed day of the week. We ask ALLAH Azzawajal to keep guiding and aiding us to act only for HIS pleasure. Aameen.
The virtues of this day include the following:
On it is Salaat al-Jumu’ah (Friday prayer), which is the best among the prayers each day.
ALLAH Azzawajal says in the QUR'AN:
“O you who believe (Muslims)! When the call is proclaimed for the Salaah (prayer) on Friday (Jumu‘ah prayer), come to the remembrance of ALLAAH (Jumu‘ah religious talk (Khutbah) and Salaah (prayer)] and leave off business (and every other thing). That is better for you if you did but know!”[al-Jumu’ah 62:9]. This verse has clarified to us that we must stop all kinds of activities on Friday to attend to khutbah sermon.
Imam Muslim narrated from Abu Hurayrah (may Allaah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of ALLAH (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: “The five daily prayers and from one Jumu’ah to the next is an expiation for whatever sins come in between them, so long as one does not commit a major sin.”
Let's note that WHOMEVER dies during the day or night of Friday, ALLAH Azzawajal will protect him from the trial of the grave.
It was narrated that ‘Abd-Allaah ibn ‘Amr said: The Messenger of ALLAH (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: “There is no Muslim who dies during the day of Friday or the night of Friday but ALLAH will protect him from the trial of the grave.”Narrated by al-Tirmidhi, 1074; classed as saheeh by Sheikh al-Albaani in Ahkaam al-Janaa’iz, p. 49, 50. It's a favour from ALLAH for those ALLAH chooses to die on Friday, not by our choice because if you kill yourself even on Friday you will enter hellfire for killing yourself says the Prophet sallallahu alaihi wasallam.
As the Prophet recommended, we should try to recite Suuratul Kahf, take ghusul, cut our nails, clean our teeth with miswak, men should put on perfume and dress similarly to how we dress for Eid. *_We ask ALLAH Azzawajal to help us in our little efforts to please HIM_*. Aameen.
