Question:
The questioner asks: Did the scholars agree on the first hour of Friday? And does "hour" refer to the specific hour of sixty minutes we use now? And what is the meaning of "badnah"?
Answer:
It was said that the first hour begins from the Fajr prayer. That is, from the one who goes to the mosque after the Fajr prayer. It was also said that it begins from the rising of the sun. In any case, a person should go early to the Friday prayer, going as early as he is able. He has the reward that the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) mentioned, indeed, the rewards that the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) mentioned for the one who goes early on Friday, approaches the imam, listens, and pays attention to the khutbah, and prays the Friday prayer. Yes.
