A:
Hastening to the Jumu`ah Prayer is of great virtue and reward for it was authentically reported in the Two Sahih (authentic) Books of Hadith (i.e. Al-Bukhari and Muslim) and other books of Hadith on the authority of
Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) said:
Anyone who makes Janabah Ghusl (full ritual bath to cleanse of sexual discharge) on Friday, and then goes (to the mosque), is like the one who offers a she-camel as a sacrifice, and he who comes during the second hour would be like the one who offers a cow, and he who comes during the third hour is like the one who offers a ram with horns, and he who comes during the fourth hour is like the one who offers a hen, and he who comes during the fifth hour is like the one who offers an egg. And when the Imam comes out, the angels are also present and listen to the mention of Allah (the sermon).
Hence, it is permissible for the Muslim to be keen on going early to the Masjid on Friday as much as possible unless he has something more important to take care of such as his family affairs and other worldly and religious affairs.May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.
