حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الصَّبَّاحِ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْعَزِيزِ بْنُ أَبِي حَازِمٍ، حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي، عَنْ سَهْلِ بْنِ سَعْدٍ، قَالَ مَا كُنَّا نَقِيلُ وَلاَ نَتَغَدَّى إِلاَّ بَعْدَ الْجُمُعَةِ ‏.‏
“We did not take a Qailulah nor eat Ghada’ until after Friday (prayer).”*
Narrated by It was narrated that Sahl bin Sa’d said:

Context

Sahl bin Sa’d narrates that the companions would not take a midday rest (Qailulah) or eat lunch (Ghada’) until after the Friday prayer. This reflects the importance of prioritizing communal worship on Fridays and the collective nature of the Friday prayer, which is a significant event in the Islamic week.

Modern Application

Today, many Muslims may adjust their schedules to ensure they can attend Friday prayers, often delaying meals or rest until after the service. This practice reinforces the importance of community and worship in the lives of believers.

Topics

This hadith is tagged with Prayer and Friday Prayer (Jumu'ah) because it emphasizes the significance of attending the Friday prayer before engaging in personal activities.
