2.7:
Narrated Abu Huraira: While `Umar (bin Al−Khattab) was
delivering the Khutba on a Friday, a man entered (the mosque).
`Umar asked him, "What has detained you from the prayer?" The
man said, "It was only that when I heard the Adhan I performed
ablution (for the prayer)." On that `Umar said, "Did you not
hear the Prophet saying: 'Anyone of you going out for the
Jumua prayer should take a bath'?".
2.8:
Narrated Salman−Al−Farsi: The Prophet (p.b.u.h) said, "Whoever
takes a bath on Friday, purifies himself as much as he can,
then uses his (hair) oil or perfumes himself with the scent of
his house, then proceeds (for the Jumua prayer) and does not
separate two persons sitting together (in the mosque), then
prays as much as (Allah has) written for him and then remains
silent while the Imam is delivering the Khutba, his sins
in−between the present and the last Friday would be forgiven."
2.9:
Narrated Tawus:
I said to Ibn `Abbas, "The people are narrating that the
Prophet said, 'Take a bath on Friday and wash your heads (i.e.
take a thorough bath) even though you were not Junub and use
perfume'." On that Ibn `Abbas replied, "I know about the bath,
(i.e. it is essential) but I do not know about the perfume
(i.e. whether it is essential or not.)
2.10:
Narrated Tawus:
Ibn `Abbas mentioned the statement of the Prophet regarding
the taking of a bath on Friday and then I asked him whether
the Prophet (p.b.u.h) had ordered perfume or (hair) oil to be
used if they could be found in one's house. He (Ibn `Abbas)
replied that he did not know about it.
2.11:
Narrated `Abdullah bin `Umar: `Umar bin Al−Khattab saw a
silken cloak (being sold) at the gate of the Mosque and said
to Allah's Apostle, "I wish you would buy this to wear on
Fridays and also on occasions of the arrivals of the
delegations." Allah's Apostle replied, "This will be worn by a
person who will have no share (reward) in the Hereafter."
Later on similar cloaks were given to Allah's Apostle and he
gave one of them to `Umar bin Al−Khattab. On that `Umar said,
"O Allah's Apostle! You have given me this cloak although on
the cloak of Atarid (a cloak merchant who was selling that
silken cloak at the gate of the mosque) you passed such and
such a remark." Allah's Apostle replied, "I have not given you
this to wear". And so `Umar bin Al−Khattab gave it to his
pagan brother in Mecca to wear.
