The Meaning of the Hadith: Whoever Washes and Takes a Bath on Friday
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, regarding his saying (peace and blessings be upon him): "Whoever washes and takes a bath on Friday," does the meaning imply that if he has intercourse with his wife on the night of Friday and does not take a bath until after the Fajr adhan, or does the meaning imply that intercourse should only occur after Fajr on Friday so that he falls under this hadith and its virtue?
Answer:
May Allah expand your horizons, my brother. I intended to have intercourse before going to the Friday prayer. Even if you have intercourse at night, it does not contradict [the ruling]. May Allah strengthen you. Yes.
