💎 Follow The Sunnah On Friday
🔢 Ghusl should be done after sunrise on Friday and delaying it until right before going to the Friday prayer is best (if possible)
💡 “Ghusl for Jum'muah (Friday) begins at the break of dawn, but it is better not to do ghusl until after the sun has risen, because the day has certainly begun after sunrise, and because the time before sunrise is the time for Fajr prayer, and the time for Fajr prayer has not ended yet, so it is better not to do ghusl until after the sun has risen. Then it is better not to do ghusl until the time for going to Jum'muah, so that he will be going to Jum'muah immediately after purifying himself.” [Majmu Fatawa Ibn Uthaymeen (16/142)]

🔢 Remain silent and avoid distractions during the Khutbah (sermon)
📖 Narrated by Abu Huraira: Allah's Messenger ﷺ said: “When the Imam is delivering the Khutbah, and you ask your companion to keep quiet and listen, then no doubt you have done an evil act.” [Bukhari 934]
💡 “In this tradition is the prohibition of every kind of talking during the sermon.” [Al-Nawawi, Sharh Al-Nawawi alaa Sahih Muslim]
📖 Abu Huraira reported Allah's Messenger ﷺ as saying: “He who performed ablution well, then came to Friday prayer, listened (to the sermon) and kept silent, all (his sins) between that time and the next Friday would be forgiven with three days extra, and he who touched pebbles caused an interruption.” [Muslim 857b]
🔢 Friday prayer is not obligatory for women, and it is better for them to pray Dhuhr at home, but it is permissible for them to attend
💡 “The Prophet ﷺ said: “Do not prevent the female servants of Allah from going to the mosques of Allah.” So if she goes out to listen to the Khutbah and learn, and she is covered, observing hijab and modest, then there is nothing wrong with that and there is no blame on her. But her house is better for her, and she may pray Dhuhr at home with four rak‘ahs. But if she goes out, do not prevent her, because if she is modest and observing hijab, and it is safe for her, and she is seeking good and wants to listen to the Khutbah and learn, there is nothing wrong with that and there is no blame on her, inshaAllah.” [Ibn Baz, Fataawa Noor Ala ad-Darb (2/1051)]

⚠️ “I advise Muslim women to observe chastity; wear the veil and guard themselves against showing off their beauty. They should also be warned against applying perfume while they are outside their homes. In fact, these are all means to evil and temptation. No doubt, they have to fear Allah and be warned against showing means of temptation such as makeup, perfume, and showing off their beauty.” [Fatwas of Ibn Baz (16/346)]
