The Obligation of the Jumu’ah Prayer, Its Virtue, Who is Exempt from it, and the Prayer and Sermon Therein
وَ رَوَى مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ مُسْلِمٍ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ: فِي قَوْلِ يَعْقُوبَ لِبَنِيهِ: «سَوْفَ أَسْتَغْفِرُ لَكُمْ رَبِّي» قَالَ «أَخَّرَهَا إِلَى اَلسَّحَرِ لَيْلَةَ اَلْجُمُعَةِ.
Muhammad ibn Muslim narrated from Imam Jafar ibn Muhammad Al-Sadiq عليه السلام regarding the words of Prophet Ya'qub (Jacob) to his sons: "I will seek forgiveness for you from my Lord عز وجل" (Surah Yusuf 12:98).” Imam عليه السلام said: "He delayed it until the time of Sahar (pre-dawn) on the night of Jumu’ah."
