Religion Desk: Friday is a special day in Islam. Juma's day is of immense importance in Islam. Friday is called the weekly Eid day. The word 'juma' is derived from the word 'jama'. Jama Arabic words. It means to come together or gather together.

There is a distinct Surah in the Holy Quran called Surah Juma. The commentators say, the name of the surah before Surah Juma is Surah 'Saf'. Saf means row or row. Friday prayers are performed in rows. This implies unity and order.

Discussion of Juma in the Qur'an

It is obligatory for every Muslim man with knowledge to go to the mosque and offer Friday prayers. This prayer has to be performed in congregation. That is why Almighty Allah orders to attend the mosque quickly on Friday and says-

يَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِيْنَ امَنُوْا إِذَا نُوْدِيَ لِلَّلَةِ مِنْ يَّوْمِ الْجُمُعَةِ فَاسْعَوْا إِلَى ذِكْرِ اللهِ وَذَرُوا الْبَيْعَ, ذَلِكُمْ خَيْرٌ مْ إِنْ كُنْتُمْ تَعْلَمُوْنَ Meaning: O you who believe, when the call to prayer is made on Friday, come quickly to the remembrance of Allah and stop buying and selling. do This is good for you, if you understand. (Surah Juma 9)

On the authority of Hazrat Salman Farsi (RA), Rasulullah Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam said,

A person who bathed on Friday, purified himself as much as he could, used oil, used perfume from the house, then came to the mosque, did not step forward between two worshipers there, prayed a certain number of times, then remained silent when the imam began to speak; Then Allah Almighty will forgive the sins of the period between two Fridays. (Bukhari: 883)

Rasulullah Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam said, When the day of Jumma comes, the angels stand at the door of the mosque and write down the names of the visitors starting from the first one. The one who comes first is like a person who gives charity to a camel. Then whoever comes is like a person who gives a cow in charity. Then the arriving chicken is like a charity worker. Then the arrival is like an egg donor. Then when the imam went out to deliver the sermon, the angels closed their offices and listened attentively to the sermon. (Bukhari: 882)

Rasulullah Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam also said:

There is a time when prayers are accepted on Jumma, if a Muslim gets that time, and if he is in prayer then Allah fulfills any good wishes he has. (Bukhari, Hadith Number 6400)

Almighty Allah forgives minor sins between two Fridays. However, for a major sin, one must repent and seek forgiveness from the servant if he has violated his rights.
