Hadith 33

Sahih Bukhari

Book 11: Friday Prayer

Chapter 18

To go walking unhurriedly

باب الْمَشْىِ إِلَى الْجُمُعَةِ

And the Statement of Allah تعالى: "...Come to the remembrance of Allah [Jumu'ah religious talk (Khutba) and Salat (prayer)]" (V.62:9) and whoever said that the meaning of "come" is "to prepare and go for the Salat (prayer)" as is inferred from the Statement of Allah تعالى: "And strives for it, with the necessary effort due for it..." (V.17:19) And Ibn 'Abbas رضي الله عنهما said: "Selling is forbidden at that time." And 'Ata' said, "All types of work are forbidden [at the time of the Salat (prayer)]." And narrated Az-Zuhri: If the Adhan is pronounced by the Mu'adh-dhin on Friday [for Salat-ul-Jumu'ah (Jumu'ah prayer)], anyone on a journey should attend the Salat (prayer).
وَقَوْلِ اللَّهِ- جَلَّ ذِكْرُهُ- {فَاسْعَوْا إِلَى ذِكْرِ اللَّهِ}. وَمَنْ قَالَ السَّعْيُ الْعَمَلُ وَالذَّهَابُ لِقَوْلِهِ تَعَالَى: {وَسَعَى لَهَا سَعْيَهَا}. وَقَالَ ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُمَا يَحْرُمُ الْبَيْعُ حِينَئِذٍ. وَقَالَ عَطَاءٌ تَحْرُمُ الصِّنَاعَاتُ كُلُّهَا. وَقَالَ إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ سَعْدٍ عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ إِذَا أَذَّنَ الْمُؤَذِّنُ يَوْمَ الْجُمُعَةِ وَهْوَ مُسَافِرٌ فَعَلَيْهِ أَنْ يَشْهَدَ.
Sahih al-Bukhari 909
حَدَّثَنَا عَمْرُو بْنُ عَلِيٍّ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي أَبُو قُتَيْبَةَ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ الْمُبَارَكِ، عَنْ يَحْيَى بْنِ أَبِي كَثِيرٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ أَبِي قَتَادَةَ ـ لاَ أَعْلَمُهُ إِلاَّ عَنْ أَبِيهِ ـ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ ‏ ‏‏.‏
"‏ لاَ تَقُومُوا حَتَّى تَرَوْنِي، وَعَلَيْكُمُ السَّكِينَةُ ‏"
`Abdullah bin Abi Qatada on the authority of his father:

The Prophet (p.b.u.h) said, "Do not stand up (for prayer) unless you see me, and observe calmness and solemnity".
