يَوْمُ ٱلْجُمُعَة
Yawm al-Jumu'ah
“The day of gathering (Friday)”
The best day of the week
Friday is called Jumu'ah. The Prophet ﷺ told us it is the best day the sun rises on. It's like a little Eid every week!
The Jumu'ah prayer
At midday, Muslims gather at the masjid. The imam gives a talk called the khutbah, and then everyone prays together.
Getting ready
On Jumu'ah we take a bath, wear clean clothes, use nice perfume, read Surah Al-Kahf and send lots of blessings on the Prophet ﷺ.
“O you who believe, when the call is made for prayer on Friday, hurry to the remembrance of Allah.”
