Allah says in Qur’an (Surah Al-Jumu‘ah 62:9):
“O you who believe, when the call is proclaimed for prayer on Friday, hasten to the remembrance of Allah and leave off trade…”
The Prophet ﷺ said:
“The best day on which the sun has risen is Friday…”
(Reported in Sahih Muslim)
He taught that on Friday:
• Adam (AS) was created
• He entered Jannah
• He was sent to earth
• The Day of Judgment will occur
So Friday itself carries divine significance.
