(Whoever performs wudu on Friday, that is sufficient and good, and whoever performs ghusl, the ghusl is better); does this not indicate that ghusl is not obligatory on Friday?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner: Whoever performs wudu and perfects the wudu, the wudu is sufficient, correct? Whoever performs wudu and perfects the wudu, the wudu is sufficient, the hadith of Friday.
The Shaykh: Is your question related to the previous research or the subsequent one?
The questioner: The previous one, regarding the Friday bath.
Abu Layla: Our brothers, raise your hands if you want to ask.
The Shaykh: It is like this now, the group has gotten tired of the system, so sometimes the disorder is from the system [The Shaykh laughs!].
Yes, what do you mean by this?
The questioner: I mean, some of our shaykhs say that the wudu is sufficient,, there is a hadith, what is the authenticity of this hadith?
The Shaykh: And what is the complete hadith?
The questioner:, the chapter of preference.
The Shaykh: Good; is the word specifically for the voluntary, or does it include the obligatory?
The questioner: The obligatory and the voluntary, it includes the obligatory as well.
The Shaykh: If you relaxed, you would answer with the shortest answer, what was my question? Does it include only the voluntary or also the obligatory? You say it includes the obligatory and the voluntary, or does it not include the obligatory? What do you say? Or what do you understand? Or what did your shaykhs explain to you - may Allah be pleased with them -?
The questioner: The better includes the obligatory as well.
The Shaykh: Ah, it includes the obligatory as well. Good; so does it negate that the ghusl is obligatory as long as it includes the obligatory?
The questioner: It does not negate, but the Companions, some of the Companions did it.
The Shaykh: No, you have strayed from the hadith now.
Another questioner: Hadith: O Shaykh.
The Shaykh: Stay with the hadith now, your research is in the hadith, then we will return to the Companions, and they are our role model and our example. The meaning of the words of the hadith does not indicate what you heard; why? What is the verse of Friday?[Al-Jumu'ah 62:9] What? [At-Tawbah 9:41], this is a name of superlative; meaning better; does that mean it is not obligatory to respond to the caller on Friday by going to the mosque? The answer: No. Similarly, when the hadith said: it does not mean that the ghusl is not obligatory, but the reality is that it means absolute preference; that is: this ghusl may be obligatory and may not be obligatory, I want to say: this hadith does not derive obligation from it, but if there is evidence indicating obligation, it does not contradict it and it is included in it; clear?
The questioner : Is that clear?
The Shaykh: All right.
Another questioner : ... .
The Shaykh: No, now answer the mu'adhdhin.
