Question:
Some people think that if Hajj falls on a Friday, it has a special merit over other times?
Answer:
Ibn al-Qayyim (may Allah have mercy on him) elaborated on this in the beginning of al-Hady, because the Prophet’s (peace and blessings be upon him) Hajj fell on a Friday. However, nothing specific was reported regarding this; rather, the Prophet’s (peace and blessings be upon him) Hajj coincided with the best day of the week, so it has a merit from this perspective.
