Sunan Abi Dawud 1124 (Book 2, Hadith 735) #21416
Reciting Surahs on Fridays

SUMMARY: The hadith is about Abu Hurairah leading a prayer and reciting two surahs, which 'Ali used to recite at Kufah. He heard the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) reciting them on Friday.

Ibn Abi Rafi' said: Abu Hurairah led us in the Friday prayer and recited Surah al-Jumu'ah and "When the hypocrites come to you" (63) in the last rak'ah. He said: I met Abu Hurairah when he finished the prayer and said to him: You recited the two surah that 'Ali used to recite at Kufah. Abu Hurairah said: I heard the Messenger of Allah reciting them on Friday.
حَدَّثَنَا الْقَعْنَبِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا سُلَيْمَانُ، - يَعْنِي ابْنَ بِلاَلٍ - عَنْ جَعْفَرٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي رَافِعٍ، قَالَ صَلَّى بِنَا أَبُو هُرَيْرَةَ يَوْمَ الْجُمُعَةِ فَقَرَأَ بِسُورَةِ الْجُمُعَةِ وَفِي الرَّكْعَةِ الآخِرَةِ ‏{‏ إِذَا جَاءَكَ الْمُنَافِقُونَ ‏}‏ قَالَ فَأَدْرَكْتُ أَبَا هُرَيْرَةَ حِينَ انْصَرَفَ فَقُلْتُ لَهُ إِنَّكَ قَرَأْتَ بِسُورَتَيْنِ كَانَ عَلِيٌّ - رضى الله عنه - يَقْرَأُ بِهِمَا بِالْكُوفَةِ ‏.‏ قَالَ أَبُو هُرَيْرَةَ فَإِنِّي سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ يَقْرَأُ بِهِمَا يَوْمَ الْجُمُعَةِ

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith speaks of the importance of reciting certain surahs during prayer on Fridays. Abu Huraira was leading a prayer and he chose to recite two particular surahs - Al Jumu’a and ‘When the Hypocrites come to you’ - which Ali used to recite in Kufa. It is said that Abu Huraira heard Prophet Muhammad himself reciting these same surahs during his own prayers on Fridays. This shows us how important it is for Muslims to take part in their weekly congregational prayers and also how important it is for us to follow the example of our beloved Prophet Muhammad by reading certain verses from the Quran during our prayers every week.
