كتاب الجمعةJumu'a

Yahya related to me from Malik from Sumayy, the mawla of Abu Bakr

ibn Abd ar-Rahman, from Abu Salih as-Sammani from Abu Hurayra that the

Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said, "If

someone does ghusl for major ritual impurity on the day of jumua and

then goes in the first part of the time, it is as if he had offered up

a camel. If he goes in the second part of the time, it is as if he had

offered up a cow. If he goes in the third part of the time, it is as

if he had offered up a horned ram. If he goes in the fourth part of

the time, it is as if he had offered up a hen. If he goes in the fifth

part of the time, it is as if he had offered up an egg. And when the

imam comes out, the angels settle down listening to the dhikr

(remembrance of Allah)."

Yahya related to me from Malik from Said ibn Abi Said al-Maqburi

that Abu Hurayra used to say, "Doing ghusl as prescribed for major

ritual impurity is incumbent (wajib) on the day of jumua on every male

who has reached puberty."

Yahya related to me from Malik from Ibn Shihab that Salim ibn

Abdullah said, "One of the companions of the Messenger of Allah, may

Allah bless him and grant him peace, came into the mosque on the day

of jumua and Umar ibn al Khattab was already giving the khutba. Umar

said, 'What (kind of) time is this (to arrive)?' He said, Amir al-

muminin, I returned from the market and heard the call to prayer, so I

did no more than do wudu.' Umar said, 'You only did wudu as well? You

know that the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him

peace, used to tell people to do ghusl.' "

Yahya related to me from Malik from Safwan ibn Sulaym from Ata

ibn Yasar from Abu Said al-Khudri that the Messenger of Allah, may

Allah bless him and grant him peace, said, "Ghusl on the day of jumua

is incumbent on every male who has reached puberty."

Yahya related to me from Malik from Nafi from Ibn Umar that the

Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said,

"When you come to jumua, do ghusl."

Malik said, "It is not

enough for someone to do a ghusl on the day of jumua and intend by it

the ghusl for jumua unless he does the ghusl and then sets off. That

is because the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him

peace, said in the hadith related by Ibn Umar, 'When you come to

jumua, do ghusl .' "

Malik said, "If someone does ghusl on

the day of jumua and intends by it the ghusl of the day of jumua and

then sets out, whether early or late, and does something which breaks

his wudu, he only has to do wudu and his ghusl remains valid for him."

Yahya related to me from Malik from Abu'z Zinad from al-Araj from

Abu Hurayra that the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant

him peace, said, "Even saying to your companion 'Listen' while the

imam is giving the khutba on the day of jumua, is to speak foolishly."

Yahya related to me from Malik from Ibn Shihab that Thalaba ibn

Abi Malik al Quradhi informed him that in the time of Umar ibn al

Khattab they used to pray on the day of jumua until Umar came out, and

when Umar came out and sat on the mimbar and the muadhdhins called the

adhan, they would sit and talk, and then when the muadhdhins were

silent and Umar stood to give the khutba, they would pay attention and

no-one would speak .

Ibn Shihab said, "The imam coming out

stops prayer and his speaking stops conversation."

Yahya related to me from Malik from Abu'n Nadr, the mawla of Umar

ibn Ubaydullah, from Malik ibn Abi Amir that Uthman ibn Affan used to

say in khutbas, and he would seldom omit it if he was giving the

khutba, "When the imam stands delivering the khutba on the day of

jumua, listen and pay attention, for there is the same portion for

someone who pays attention but cannot hear as for someone who pays

attention and hears. And when the iqama of the prayer is called,

straighten your rows and make your shoulders adjacent to each other,

because the straightening of the rows is part of the completion of the

prayer." Then he would not say the takbir until some men who had been

entrusted with straightening the rows came and told him that they were

straight. Then he would say the takbir.

Yahya related to me from Malik from Nafi that Abdullah ibn Umar

saw two men talking while the imam was giving the khutba on the day of

jumua and he threw pebbles at them to tell them to be quiet.

Yahya related to me from Malik that he had heard that a man

sneezed on the day of jumua while the imam was giving the khutba, and

a man by his side asked Allah to bless him. Said ibn al Musayyab was

asked about it and he forbade the man to do what he had done and said,

"Don't do it again."

Yahya related to me from Malik that he asked Ibn Shihab about

talking in the jumua after the imam had come down from the mimbar but

before he had said the takbir. Ibn Shihab said, "There is no harm in

that."

Yahya related to me from Malik that Ibn Shihab used to say, "Some

one who catches a raka of the jumua prayer should pray another one

with it." Ibn Shihab said, "That is the sunna."

Malik said,

"I saw the people of knowledge in our city doing that. That is because

the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said,

'Whoever catches a raka of the prayer has caught the prayer.' "

Malik said, concerning some one who was in a crowd on the day of

jumua and did the ruku but was not able to go into sajda until the

imam had risen or finished his prayer, "If he is able to do the sajda

and has already done the ruku then he should do the sajda when the

people stand up. If he is unable to do thesajda until after the imam

has finished the prayer, then I prefer that he begins the prayeragain

and does the four rakas of dhuhr."

Malik said, "Someone who has a nosebleed on the day of jumua

while the imam is giving the khutba and he leaves and does not come

back until the imam has finished the prayer, should pray four rakas.''

Malik said that someone who prayed a raka with the imam on

the day of jumua, then had a nosebleed and left and came back and the

imam had prayed both rakas, should complete the prayer with another

raka as long as he had not spoken.

Malik said, "If some one

has a nosebleed, or something happens to him and he has no alternative

but to leave, he does not have to ask permission of the imam if he

wants to leave on the day of jumua."

Yahya related to me from Malik that he had asked Ibn Shihab about

the word of Allah, the Majestic, the Mighty, "O you who accept, when

the call is made for the prayer on the day of jumua, make haste to the

remembrance of Allah."(Sura 62 ayat 9). Ibn Shihab said, ''Umar ibn

al-Khattab used to recite, 'When the call is made for the prayer on

the day of jumua, go to the remembrance of Allah.' "

Malik

said, "Making haste in the Book of Allah is only deed and action.

Allah the Blessed, the Exalted, says 'and when he turns away, he acts

in the land' (Sura 2 ayat 205), and He, the Exalted, said, 'and as for

the one who comes to you acting with fear' (Sura 80 ayat 8), and He

said, 'then he turned his back, and acted' (Sura 79 ayat 22),and He

said, 'Your deeds are diverse' " (Sura 92 ayat 4). Malik said, "Thus

making haste which Allah mentions in His Book is not running on the

feet or exertion. It only means deed and actions."

Malik said, "If the imam stops off on a journey in a town where

jumua is obligatory and he gives a khutba and takes the jumua prayer

for them, then the people of the town and any other people present do

the jumua prayer with him."

Malik said, "If the imam gathers

people for prayer while he is travelling in a town where the jumua

prayer is not obligatory, then there is no jumua for him, nor for the

people of the town, nor for anyone else who joins them for the prayer

in congregation, and the people of the town and anyone else who is not

travelling should complete the prayer."

Malik added, "A

traveller does not have to do jumua "

Yahya related to me from Malik from Abu'z Zinad from al-Araj from

Abu Hurayra that the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant

him peace, mentioned the day of jumua and said, "There is a time in it

when Allah gives to a muslim slave standing in prayer whatever he asks

for," and the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him

peace, indicated with his hand how small it was.

the mosque of the Haram (Makka), this mosque (Madina), and

the mosque of Ilya or the Bait al-Maqdis (two names of Jerusalem)." '

" (He was not sure which expression was used.)

Abu Hurayra

continued, "Then I met Abdullah ibn Salam and I told him that I had

sat with Kabal-Ahbar, and I mentioned what I had related to him about

the day of jumua, and told him that Kab had said, 'That is one day in

every year.' Abdullah ibn Salam said, 'Kab lied,' and I added, 'Kab

then recited the Tawrah and said, "No, it is in every jumua.'' '

Abdullah ibn Salam said, 'Kab spoke the truth. 'Then Abdullah ibn

Salam said, 'I know what time that is.' "

Abu Hurayra

continued, "I said to him, 'Let me know it - don't keep it from me.'

Abdullah ibn Salam said, 'It is the last period of time in the dayof

jumua.' "

Abu Hurayra continued, "I said, 'How can it be the

last period of time in the day of jumua, when the Messenger of Allah,

may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said, "a muslim slave

standing in prayer", and that is a time when there is no prayer?'

Abdullah ibn Salam replied, 'Didn't the Messenger of Allah, may Allah

bless him and grant him peace, say, "Whoever sits waiting for the

prayer is in prayer until he prays?" "'

Abu Hurayra added, "I

said, 'Of course.' He said, 'Then it is that.' "

Yahya related to me from Malik from Yahya ibn Said that he had

heard that the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him

peace, said, "There is nothing wrong in wearing two garments which are

not work-clothes for jumua."

Yahya related to me from Malik from Nafi that Abdullah ibn Umar

would never go to jumua without wearing oil and perfume except when it

was forbidden (i.e. when he was muhrim).

Yahya related to me from Malik from Nafi from Abdullah ibn Abi

Bakr ibn Hazm from whoever related it to him that Abu Hurayra used to

say, "It is better for a man to pray on the surface of al Harra (a

rocky area in Madina) than for him to wait until the imam stands to

give the khutba and then come and step over people's necks."

Malik said, "The sunna with us is that the people face the imam on the

day of jumua when he intends to give the khutba, whether they are near

the qibla or elsewhere."

Yahya related to me from Malik from Damra ibn Said al-Mazini from

Ubaydullah ibn Abdullah ibn Utba ibn Masud that ad-Dahhak ibn Qays

asked an-Numan ibn Bashir, "What did the Messenger of Allah, may Allah

bless him and grant him peace, use to recite on the day of jumua after

suratal-Jumua (Sura 62)?" He said, "He used to recite al-Ghashiya

(Sura 88)."

Yahya related to me from Malik that Safwan ibn Sulaym said, "If

anyone omits jumua three times without reason or illness, Allah will

set a seal on his heart." (Malik said, "I don't know if it was from

the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, or

not.")

Yahya related to me from Malik from Jafar ibn Muhammad from his

father that the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him

peace, gave two khutbas on the day of jumua and sat down between them.
