Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you, Honorable Shaykh. A questioner says: You mentioned in recent days that the people closest to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) on the Day of Resurrection are those closest to the imam. My question is: Is this specific to Friday, or does it include all five daily prayers?
Answer:
This was mentioned regarding Friday. It was mentioned regarding Friday. In fact, what I recall is that it is on the Day of Increase, which is the visit to the Lord of the Worlds when the people of Paradise gather. The one whose seat is closest to Allah (Mighty and Majestic) is the one who was closest to the imam on Friday. So those who arrive early for the Friday prayer will be at the forefront of those who visit their Lord on the Day of Resurrection, on the Day of Increase, when He manifests Himself to them and speaks to them, Glorified and Exalted is He. Yes.
