Volume 2 2.1: Narrated Abu Huraira: I heard Allah's Apostle (p.b.u.h) sayin ! "#e ($uslims) are the last (to %ome) but (&ill be) the 'oremost on the (ay o' )esurre%tion thou h the 'ormer nations &ere i*en the Holy +%riptures be'ore us. And this &as their day (,riday) the %elebration o' &hi%h &as made %ompulsory 'or them but they di''ered about it. +o Allah a*e us the uidan%e 'or it (,riday) and all the other people are behind us in this respe%t: the -e&s' (holy day is) tomorro& (i.e. +aturday) and the .hristians' (is) the day a'ter tomorro& (i.e. +unday)." 2.2: Narrated /Abdullah bin /0mar: Allah's Apostle (p.b.u.h) said! "Anyone o' you attendin the ,riday (prayers) should take a bath." 2.1: Narrated Ibn /0mar: #hile /0mar bin Al23hattab &as standin and deli*erin the sermon on a ,riday! one o' the %ompanions o' the 4rophet! &ho &as one o' the 'oremost $uha5irs (emi rants) %ame. /0mar said to him! "#hat is the time no&6" He replied! "I &as busy and %ould not o ba%k to my house till I heard the Adhan. I did not per'orm more than the ablution." 7hereupon /0mar said to him! "(id you per'orm only the ablution althou h you kno& that Allah's Apostle (p.b.u.h) used to order us to take a bath (on ,ridays)6" 2.8: Narrated Abu +a/id Al23hudri: Allah's Apostle (p.b.u.h) said! "7he takin o' a bath on ,riday is %ompulsory 'or e*ery male ($uslim) &ho has attained the a e o' puberty." 2.9: Narrated Abu +a/id: I testi'y that Allah's Apostle said! "7he takin o' a bath on ,riday is %ompulsory 'or e*ery male $uslim &ho has attained the a e o' puberty and (also) the %leanin o' his teeth &ith +i&ak! and the usin o' per'ume i' it is a*ailable." /Amr (a sub2narrator) said! "I %on'irm that the takin o' a bath is %ompulsory! but as 'or the +i&ak and the usin o' per'ume! Allah kno&s better &hether it is obli atory or not! but a%%ordin to the Hadith it is as abo*e.") 2.:: Narrated Abu Huraira: Allah's Apostle (p.b.u.h) said! "Any person &ho takes a bath on ,riday like the bath o' -anaba and then oes 'or the prayer (in the 'irst hour i.e. early)! it is as i' he had sa%ri'i%ed a %amel (in Allah's %ause); and &hoe*er oes in the se%ond hour it is as i' he had sa%ri'i%ed a %o&; and &hoe*er oes in the third hour! then it is as i' he had sa%ri'i%ed a horned ram; and i' one oes in the 'ourth hour! then it is as i' he had sa%ri'i%ed a hen; and &hoe*er oes in the 'i'th hour then it is as i' he had o''ered an e . #hen the Imam %omes out (i.e. starts deli*erin the 3hutba)! the an els present themsel*es to listen to the 3hutba." 2.<: Narrated Abu Huraira: #hile /0mar (bin Al23hattab) &as deli*erin the 3hutba on a ,riday! a man entered (the mos=ue). /0mar asked him! "#hat has detained you 'rom the prayer6" 7he man said! "It &as only that &hen I

heard the Adhan I per'ormed ablution ('or the prayer)." >n that /0mar said! "(id you not hear the 4rophet sayin : 'Anyone o' you oin out 'or the -umua prayer should take a bath'6". 2.?: Narrated +alman2Al2,arsi: 7he 4rophet (p.b.u.h) said! "#hoe*er takes a bath on ,riday! puri'ies himsel' as mu%h as he %an! then uses his (hair) oil or per'umes himsel' &ith the s%ent o' his house! then pro%eeds ('or the -umua prayer) and does not separate t&o persons sittin to ether (in the mos=ue)! then prays as mu%h as (Allah has) &ritten 'or him and then remains silent &hile the Imam is deli*erin the 3hutba! his sins in2bet&een the present and the last ,riday &ould be 'or i*en." 2.@: Narrated 7a&us: I said to Ibn /Abbas! "7he people are narratin that the 4rophet said! '7ake a bath on ,riday and &ash your heads (i.e. take a thorou h bath) e*en thou h you &ere not -unub and use per'ume'." >n that Ibn /Abbas replied! "I kno& about the bath! (i.e. it is essential) but I do not kno& about the per'ume (i.e. &hether it is essential or not.) 2.1A: Narrated 7a&us: Ibn /Abbas mentioned the statement o' the 4rophet re ardin the takin o' a bath on ,riday and then I asked him &hether the 4rophet (p.b.u.h) had ordered per'ume or (hair) oil to be used i' they %ould be 'ound in one's house. He (Ibn /Abbas) replied that he did not kno& about it. 2.11: Narrated /Abdullah bin /0mar: /0mar bin Al23hattab sa& a silken %loak (bein sold) at the ate o' the $os=ue and said to Allah's Apostle! "I &ish you &ould buy this to &ear on ,ridays and also on o%%asions o' the arri*als o' the dele ations." Allah's Apostle replied! "7his &ill be &orn by a person &ho &ill ha*e no share (re&ard) in the Herea'ter." Bater on similar %loaks &ere i*en to Allah's Apostle and he a*e one o' them to /0mar bin Al23hattab. >n that /0mar said! "> Allah's ApostleC Dou ha*e i*en me this %loak althou h on the %loak o' Atarid (a %loak mer%hant &ho &as sellin that silken %loak at the ate o' the mos=ue) you passed su%h and su%h a remark." Allah's Apostle replied! "I ha*e not i*en you this to &ear". And so /0mar bin Al23hattab a*e it to his pa an brother in $e%%a to &ear. 2.12: Narrated Abu Huraira: Allah's Apostle said! "I' I had not 'ound it hard 'or my 'ollo&ers or the people! I &ould ha*e ordered them to %lean their teeth &ith +i&ak 'or e*ery prayer." 2.11: Narrated Anas: Allah's Apostle I said! "I ha*e told you repeatedly to (use) the +i&ak. (7he 4rophet put emphasis on the use o' the +i&ak.) 2.18: Narrated Hudhai'a: #hen the 4rophet (p.b.u.h) ot up at ni ht ('or the ni ht prayer)! he used to %lean his mouth . 2.19: Narrated /Aisha: /Abdur2)ahman bin Abi Bakr %ame holdin a +i&ak &ith &hi%h he &as %leanin his teeth. Allah's Apostle looked at him. I re=uested /Abdur2)ahman to i*e the +i&ak to me and a'ter he a*e it to me I di*ided it! %he&ed it and a*e it to Allah's Apostle. 7hen he %leaned his teeth &ith it and (at that time) he &as restin a ainst my %hest. 2.1:: Narrated Abu Huraira: 7he 4rophet used to re%ite the 'ollo&in in the ,a5r prayer o' ,riday! "Ali'! Bam! $im! 7anEil" (+urat2 as2+a5da F12) and "Hal2ata2ala2l2Insani" (i.e. +urah2Ad2(ahr F<:). 2.1<: 2

Narrated Ibn /Abbas: 7he 'irst -umua prayer &hi%h &as o''ered a'ter a -umua prayer o''ered at the mos=ue o' Allah's Apostle took pla%e in the mos=ue o' the tribe o' /Abdul Gais at -a&athi in Bahrain. 2.1?: Narrated Ibn /0mar: I heard Allah's Apostle sayin !

Ibn +hihab &rote (to )uEai=) orderin him to lead the -umua prayer and tellin him that +alim told him that /Abdullah bin /0mar had said! "I heard Allah's Apostle sayin ! 'All o' you are uardians and responsible 'or your &ards and the thin s under your %are. 7he Imam (i.e. ruler) is the uardian o' his sub5e%ts and is responsible 'or them and a man is the uardian o' his 'amily and is responsible 'or them. A &oman is the uardian o' her husband's house and is responsible 'or it. A ser*ant is the uardian o' his master's belon in s and is responsible 'or them.' I thou ht that he also said! 'A man is the uardian o' his 'ather's property and is responsible 'or it.

"It is obli atory 'or e*ery $uslim that he should take a bath on%e in se*en days! &hen he should &ash his head and body." Narrated Abu Huraira throu h di''erent narrators that the 4rophet said! "It is Allah's ri ht on e*ery $uslim that he should take a bath (at least) on%e in se*en days." 2.22: Narrated Ibn /0mar: 7he 4rophet (p.b.u.h) said!

(7he man did so). But the people disliked it. Ibn /Abbas said! "It &as done by one &ho &as mu%h better than I (i.e. the 4rophet (p.b.u.h) ). No doubt! the -umua prayer is %ompulsory but I dislike to put you to task by brin in you out &alkin in mud and slush." 2.29: Narrated Aisha: 1

(the &i'e o' the 4rophet) 7he people used to %ome 'rom their abodes and 'rom Al2/A&ali (i.e. outskirts o' $edina up to a distan%e o' 'our miles or more 'rom $edina). 7hey used to pass throu h dust and used to be dren%hed &ith s&eat and %o*ered &ith dust; so s&eat used to tri%kle 'rom them. >ne o' them %ame to Allah's Apostle &ho &as in my house. 7he 4rophet said to him! "I &ish that you keep yoursel' %lean on this day o' yours (i.e. take a bath)." 2.2:: Narrated Dahya bin +a/id: I asked /Amra about takin a bath on ,ridays. +he replied! " Aisha said! '7he people used to &ork ('or their li*elihood) and &hene*er they &ent 'or the -umua prayer! they used to o to the mos=ue in the same shape as they had been in &ork. +o they &ere asked to take a bath on ,riday.' " 2.2<: Narrated Anas bin $alik: 7he 4rophet used to o''er the -umua prayer immediately a'ter midday. 2.2?: Narrated Anas bin $alik: #e used to o''er the -umua prayer early and then ha*e an a'ternoon nap. 2.2@: Narrated Anas bin $alik: 7he 4rophet used to o''er the prayer earlier i' it &as *ery %old; and i' it &as *ery hot he used to delay the prayer! i.e. the -umua prayer. 2.1A: Narrated Abu /Abs: I heard the 4rophet sayin !

" 2.12: Narrated /Abdullah bin Abi Gatada on the authority o' his 'ather: 7he 4rophet (p.b.u.h) said! "(o not stand up ('or prayer) unless you see me! and obser*e %almness and solemnity". 2.11: Narrated +alman Al2,arsi: Allah's Apostle (p.b.u.h) said! "Anyone &ho takes a bath on ,riday and %leans himsel' as mu%h as he %an and puts oil (on his hair) or s%ents himsel'; and then pro%eeds 'or the prayer and does not 'or%e his &ay bet&een t&o persons (assembled in the mos=ue 'or the ,riday prayer)! and prays as mu%h as is &ritten 'or him and remains =uiet &hen the Imam deli*ers the 3hutba! all his sins in bet&een the present and the last ,riday &ill be 'or i*en." 2.18: Narrated Ibn -urai5: I heard NaEi' sayin ! "Ibn /0mar! said! '7he 4rophet 'orbade that a man should make another man to et up to sit in his pla%e' ". I said to Na'i/! 'Is it 'or -umua prayer only6' He replied! ",or -umua prayer and any other (prayer)." 2.19: Narrated As2+aib bin DaEid: In the li'etime o' the 4rophet! Abu Bakr and /0mar! the Adhan 'or the -umua prayer used to be pronoun%ed &hen the Imam sat on the pulpit. But durin the .aliphate o' /0thman &hen the $uslims in%reased in number! a third Adhan at AE2Iaura' &as added. Abu /Abdullah said!
