The Time on the Day of Jumu’ah Du’aa is Certainly Accepted

The Time on the Day of Jumu’ah Du’aa is Certainly Accepted

Nabi (Sallallahu alaihi wasallam) said that there is a time on the Day of Jumu’ah in which the Du’aa of a Muslim is certainly accepted. (Saheehain Shareefain – Bukhari and Muslim)

There exists a difference of opinion among the Ulama as to the time mentioned in this Hadeeth.

Shaikh Abdul Haq Muhaddith-e-Dehlawi (Rahmatullahi alaihi) has recorded forty views in hisSharhu Sifaris Sa’aadat.

However, two views of the forty stand out.

• One is that the time is when the Khutbah is read till the end of the Jumu’ah Salaah.
• The second is that the time referred to is at the end of the day.
• A large number of Ulama have taken the second view.

There are many Saheeh (authentic) Ahadeeth which corroborate this view (that the time of Du’aa being certainly accepted on the Day of Jumu’ah is a time after Asr till sunset).
