Question:
May Allah reward you, Your Eminence, father. The questioner asks about the virtue associated with the day of Friday, where the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) encouraged washing, applying oil, using perfume, not separating two people, praying two rak'ahs, and listening to the preacher. What is meant by applying oil and not separating two people?

Answer:
Applying oil means using perfume, applying fragrance, removing bad odors, and removing dishevelment through washing and cleaning. As for separating two people, if you see two people sitting next to each other, do not come and sit between them, thereby separating them. Yes.
