Jummah is the best day of the week. This day is full
of blessings. Muslims celebrated two Eid in a year. Rest of these celebrations
the celebration of Jummah are there in Islamic society. Jummah is just an Eid
for Momineen. In many Ahadith it is said that Hazrat Mohammad (PBUH) celebrated
this day like an Eid. It is a blessed
day for Momineen. In a Hadith it is said by Hazrat Mohammad (PBUH) that:-
“Jummah is the best of days. It was on this day that Prophet Adam (AS)
was created, it was on this day that he was granted entry into Jannah, it was
on this day that he was removed from Jannah (which is a precursor for human
existence in this universe, and Alhamdulillah is a great blessing), and the day
of resurrection will also be evidenced on this day.”
In another Hadith which is
narrated by Hazrat Abu Hurrairah it is said that:-
“We (Muslims) are Scriptures before us. And this was their day (Jummah)
the celebration of which was made compulsory for them but they differed about
it. So ALLAH gave us the guidance for it (Friday) and all the other people are
behind us in this respect: the Jews’ the last (to come) but (will be) the
foremost on the Day of Resurrection though the former nations were given the
Holy (holy day is) tomorrow (i.e. Saturday) and the Christians’ (is) the day
after tomorrow (i.e. Sunday).”
How
should we celebrate the Day of Jummah?
In Quran E Hakeem the command is given that what we
should do on that Day of Jummah. In
Surat Al-Jumu`ah it is said by Allah Almighty that:-
“O those who have
believed! When the call to Prayer is proclaimed on Friday, hasten to the
remembrance of Allah and leave off trade. That is better for you if you but
knew.”
·
So the first
think which we should do on the day of Jummah is that we listen the Azaan for
Jummah prayer we should leave our work and be prepared for Jummah’s prayer.
·
To take bath on
the day of Jummah and use Miswak is Sunnat. It is said by Hazrat Mohammad
(PBUH) that :-
“O Muslims! ALLAH SWT has made this day a day of Eid. So take bath on this
day, whoever has perfume should apply it, and use the miswaak.”
·
Men should try to go in mosque in early hours. It is said by Hazrat
Mohammad (PBUH) that:-
“Any person who takes a bath
on Friday like the bath of Janaba and then goes for the prayer (in the first
hour i.e. early), it is as if he had sacrificed a camel (in Allah’s cause); and
whoever goes in the second hour it is as if he had sacrificed a cow; and
whoever goes in the third hour, then it is as if he had sacrificed a horned
ram; and if one goes in the fourth hour, then it is as if he had sacrificed a
hen; and whoever goes in the fifth hour then it is as if he had offered an egg.
When the Imam comes out (i.e. starts delivering the Khutba), the angels present
themselves to listen to the Khutba.”
·
To recite Darood
E Pak is very much important. It is said by Hazrat Mohammad (PBUH) that:-
“Recite Durood upon me in abundance
on the day of Jummah since they are presented to me.”
·
We should recite
Surah e Al kahf on the day of jummah. All the sins between the two days will be
forgiven. It is said by Hazrat Mohammad (PBUH) that:-
“One
who memorizes the first ten verses of Surah Kahf will be secure against the
Dajjal”
These are some characteristics of the Day of Jummah.
So celebrate this Day as an Eid because for Momin that day is Eid in which he
does a lot of worship to please Allah Almighty.
