Sunan Ibn Majah 1127 (Book 5, Hadith 325) #30479
The Importance of Attending Friday Prayers

SUMMARY: The hadith is about the importance of attending Friday prayers and how neglecting it can lead to a person's heart being sealed.

It was narrated that Abu Hurairah said: The Messenger of Allah said: "What if one of you were to take a flock of sheep and look for grass for them one or two miles away, but he cannot find any at that distance, so he goes further away? Then (the time for) Friday comes but he does not attend it, then (another) Friday comes but he does not attend it, and (another) Friday comes but he does not attend it, until Allah places a seal on his heart".
حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بَشَّارٍ، حَدَّثَنَا مَعْدِيُّ بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ، حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ عَجْلاَنَ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ـ ـ ‏ "‏ أَلاَ هَلْ عَسَى أَحَدُكُمْ أَنْ يَتَّخِذَ الصُّبَّةَ مِنَ الْغَنَمِ عَلَى رَأْسِ مِيلٍ أَوْ مِيلَيْنِ، فَيَتَعَذَّرَ عَلَيْهِ الْكَلأُ، فَيَرْتَفِعَ. ثُمَّ تَجِيءُ الْجُمُعَةُ فَلاَ يَجِيءُ وَلاَ يَشْهَدُهَا وَتَجِيءُ الْجُمُعَةُ فَلاَ يَشْهَدُهَا. وَتَجِيءُ الْجُمُعَةُ فَلاَ يَشْهَدُهَا. حَتَّى يُطْبَعَ عَلَى قَلْبِهِ

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith emphasizes the importance of attending the weekly congregational prayer on Fridays. It was narrated by Abu Hurairah that Prophet Muhammad said, “What if one of you were to take a flock of sheep and look for grass for them one or two miles away, but he cannot find any at that distance, so he goes further away? Then [the time for] Friday comes but he does not attend it, then [another] Friday comes but he does not attend it, and [another] Friday comes but he does not attend it, until Allah places a seal on his heart.” This means that if someone neglects their obligation to attend the weekly congregational prayer on Fridays multiple times in succession then Allah will place a seal on their hearts which will prevent them from understanding religious matters. Therefore this hadith serves as an important reminder to Muslims about the importance of attending Jummah prayers every week without fail.
