Are your prayers harming your neighbours?<\/span><\/h1>\nIn this eye-opening skit, Steve Dabliz highlights the importance of looking after your neighbours, particularly those surrounding the mosque. It\u2019s inexcusable to harm your neighbours when attending the Mosque, not only are your jeopardising your own prayers but you are also harming the stability of the Mosque in the Community.\n
The Prophet, (Peace and blessings be upon him) said: “By Allah, he is not a believer! By Allah, he is not a believer! By Allah, he is not a believer.\u2019\u2019 It was asked, “Who is that, O Messenger of Allah?\u2019\u2019 He said, “One whose neighbour does not feel safe from his evil”\n\n(Sahih Bukhari).<\/blockquote>\nJumu\u2018ah time is known and so it is best to prepare for it in advance to take full advantage of its reward and blessings, and avoid the expected rush of Muslims and those arriving late and resorting to parking violations just to attend. Islam places such a big emphasis on the manner and timing of our arrival to Jumu\u2018ah, that we should pay the same respect to it.\n
Abu Hurayrah (may All\u0101h be pleased with him) narrates that the Messenger (peace and blessings of All\u0101h be upon him) said: \u201cWhoever does ghusl on Friday like ghusl for jan\u0101bah, then goes to the prayer (in the first hour, i.e., early), it is as if he sacrificed a camel. Whoever goes in the second hour, it is as if he sacrificed a cow; whoever goes in the third hour, it is as if he sacrificed a horned ram; whoever goes in the fourth hour, it is as if he sacrificed a hen; and whoever goes in the fifth hour it is as if he offered an egg. When the imam comes out, the angels come to listen to the khu\u1e6dbah.\u201d\n\n(Sahih Bukh\u0101ri and Sahih Muslim)<\/blockquote>\nParking may seem like something trivial to stress about, but it is vital to follow in the footsteps of our Prophet (peace and blessings of All\u0101h be upon him) in every matter. Ideally, we should strive to park a little farther from the masjid and reap the rewards of every step taken towards the House of Allah.","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
