Sunan Ibn Majah 1091 (Book 5, Hadith 289) #30443
The Obligation of Ablution on Friday

SUMMARY: Ablution on Friday is obligatory and taking a bath is better.

It was narrated from Anas bin Malik that the Prophet said: "Whoever performs ablution on Friday, it is well and good for him, and he has done what is obligatory for him. But whoever takes a bath, bath is better".
حَدَّثَنَا نَصْرُ بْنُ عَلِيٍّ الْجَهْضَمِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا يَزِيدُ بْنُ هَارُونَ، أَنْبَأَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ بْنُ مُسْلِمٍ الْمَكِّيُّ، عَنْ يَزِيدَ الرَّقَاشِيِّ، عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ـ ـ قَالَ ‏ "‏ مَنْ تَوَضَّأَ يَوْمَ الْجُمُعَةِ فَبِهَا وَنِعْمَتْ يُجْزِئُ عَنْهُ الْفَرِيضَةُ وَمَنِ اغْتَسَلَ فَالْغُسْلُ أَفْضَلُ

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith from Anas bin Malik speaks about the obligation of performing ablution on Fridays. It is said that whoever performs ablution on this day, it is well and good for him, and he has done what is obligatory for him. However, it also states that if one takes a bath instead of just performing ablution, then it would be even better. This hadith teaches us the importance of cleanliness in our lives as Muslims and how we should strive to keep ourselves clean at all times, especially during special occasions such as Fridays when we are obligated to perform ablutions before attending congregational prayers. It also encourages us to take extra steps towards cleanliness by taking baths whenever possible in order to maintain our physical hygiene as well as spiritual purity.
