Explanation of the Book of Friday Prayer and the Two Festivals-01a

Machine translationRead the Arabic original

The reciter: Abdullah ibn Yusuf narrated to us, Malik informed us, from Sami, the freed slave of Abu Bakr ibn Abd al-Rahman, from Abu al-Salam al-Saman, from Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him), that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said:

Whoever takes bath due to sexual defilement on Friday and goes out (for Friday prayer), is treated like one who offers a camel as sacrifice; he who goes out in the second instance as one who offers a cow; he who goes out in the third instance is treated as one who offers horned cow ; he who goes out in the fourth instance is treated as one who offers hen ; he who goes out in the fifth instance is treated as one who offers an egg. When the Imam comes out (for sermon), the angels too attend to listen to the sermon.

من اغتسل يوم الجمعة غسل الجنابة ثم راح فكأنما قرب بدنةً، ومن راح في الساعة الثانية فكأنما قرب بقرةً، ومن راح في الساعة الثالثة فكأنما قرب كبشاً أقرن، ومن راح في الساعة الرابعة فكأنما قرب دجاجةً، ومن راح في الساعة الخامسة فكأنما قرب بيضةً، فإذا خرج الإمام حضرت الملائكة يستمعون الذكر

Sunan Abi Dawud 351Sahih (Al-Albani)

.

The Shaykh : We have previously spoken about this and explained that the meaning of his statement

The bath for major ritual impurity

غسل الجنابة

However, the scholars (may Allah have mercy on them) mentioned that if it is after intercourse, it is better. They supported this statement by the fact that the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) said:

Whoever washes and bathes

من غسَّل واغتسل

meaning on Friday, so in this, he bathed another person, meaning: he was the cause of another person's bath.
And his statement here:

Then he went

ثم راح

and he did not mention the first hour, but what follows makes it clear that the intended meaning is that he went in the first hour, because he said

Then the one who comes in the second hour

ومن راح في الساعة الثانية

Sunan an-Nasa'i 1388Sahih (Darussalam)
