Sunan an-Nasai 1387 (Book 14, Hadith 24) #15998
The Importance of Attending Friday Prayers

SUMMARY: The hadith is about the importance of attending Friday prayers, as angels are recording the names of those who attend in order.

It was narrated from Abu Hurairah that: The Messenger of Allah said: "On Fridays the angels sit at the gates of the Masjid writing down the peoples' names in the order in which they come. So the people are like a man who sacrifices a camel and like a man who sacrifices a camel, then like a man who sacrifices a cow and like a man who sacrifices a cow, then like a man who sacrifices a sheep and like a man who sacrifices a sheep, then like a man who sacrifices a chicken and like a man who sacrifices a chicken, then like a man who sacrifices a sparrow and like a man who sacrifices a sparrow, then like a man who sacrifices an egg and like a man who sacrifices an egg".
أَخْبَرَنَا الرَّبِيعُ بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا شُعَيْبُ بْنُ اللَّيْثِ، قَالَ أَنْبَأَنَا اللَّيْثُ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَجْلاَنَ، عَنْ سُمَىٍّ، عَنْ أَبِي صَالِحٍ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، عَنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ قَالَ ‏ "‏ تَقْعُدُ الْمَلاَئِكَةُ يَوْمَ الْجُمُعَةِ عَلَى أَبْوَابِ الْمَسْجِدِ يَكْتُبُونَ النَّاسَ عَلَى مَنَازِلِهِمْ فَالنَّاسُ فِيهِ كَرَجُلٍ قَدَّمَ بَدَنَةً وَكَرَجُلٍ قَدَّمَ بَقَرَةً وَكَرَجُلٍ قَدَّمَ شَاةً وَكَرَجُلٍ قَدَّمَ دَجَاجَةً وَكَرَجُلٍ قَدَّمَ عُصْفُورًا وَكَرَجُلٍ قَدَّمَ بَيْضَةً

Attend Friday Prayers .

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith emphasizes the importance of attending Friday prayers. It is narrated by Abu Hurairah that the Messenger of Allah said that on Fridays, angels sit at the gates of mosques and record people's names in order according to their arrival. He then compares this to a man sacrificing an animal, starting with a camel and ending with an egg. This analogy shows how important it is for Muslims to attend Friday prayers as even those who come late are still recorded by angels. It also teaches us that no matter how small our deeds may seem, they will still be rewarded by Allah if we do them sincerely for His sake.
