FOR FRIDAY- WHAT U CAN DO......





GHUSL :Holy Prophet said:"O Ali! People must bathe [at least] once every seven days, so do Ghusl (bathe) every Friday, even if you have to buy the water with [the money set aside for] your provision of that day and go without food, for there is no recommended act of worship greater than it."[Reference: Bihar al-Anwar, vol. 81, p. 129, no. 18]
SADAQAH Imam Ja'far Sadiq (a.s.) said, “My father was having less money and had more expenses ,despite that he used to  give Sadaqah every Friday. He used to say that the reward of Sadaqah on Friday is two-fold, for Friday is better than all other days.” According to Imam Jafar bin Muhammad As Sadiq alms and charity, given on Friday, collect and gather, in return, compensation, what is due multiplied by 1000 times. Give out in the name of Allah as soon as the night begins.
SALAWAAT The narrator asked Imam Ja’far Sadiq (a.s.), “Which is the best deed on Friday?” Imam (a.s.) replied, “Reciting Durood on Muhammad (s.a.w.s.) and his progeny a hundred times after Salaat-e-Asr on Friday. It is better to recite more than that.” (Sawabul A'amaal )
O Allah, (please) bless Mu¦ammad and the Household of Mu¦ammad.
all¡humma ¥alli `al¡ mu¦ammadin wa ¡li mu¦ammadin
اللَّهُمَّ صَلِّ عَلَىٰ مُحَمَّدٍ وَآلِ مُحَمَّدٍ
