" Indeed on this Friday, there is a time when a Muslim does not meet him (Friday) while he is standing praying asking Allah for something, but Allah will give him ." ( Muttafaq 'alaihi )
Ibnul Qayyim said after mentioning the existence of a dispute regarding the determination of this time specification, "The most rajih (strong) opinions are two opinions which are both contained in a hadith which is thabit (shahih). Namely, the first opinion, that (the time of the ijabah ) starts from the sitting of the imam until the prayer is performed, as in the hadith of Ibn 'Umar that the Prophet Shallallahu 'alaihi wa Salam said,
It is between the time when the imam sits until the prayer is over
"(The time of the ijabah) is between the sitting of the imam until the prayer is performed ." (Muslim HR).
The second opinion, namely after the time of 'Asr. And these are the two strongest opinions. ( Zadul Ma'ad I/389-390).

A man does not take a bath on Friday and purifies himself as much as he can of purification and applies some of his oil or touches the perfume of his house, then goes out and does not separate between two people, then prays what is written for him and then listens when the imam speaks, but he will be forgiven for what happened between him and the next Friday.
" There is no servant who takes a bath on Friday and purifies himself with the best purification, then he oils his hair or perfumes himself with perfume, then he goes out (performs the Friday prayer) and does not separate two people (who are sitting), then he performs the prayer that is obligatory on him and he remains silent when the Imam preaches, but all his sins will be forgiven between this Friday and the next Friday ." (HR Bukhari).

Whoever washes and performs ghusl on Friday, gets up early and innovates, and draws closer to the imam and listens carefully, for every step he takes, he will fast for a year and pray for it, and that is easy for God.
" Whoever bathes and performs ablution on Friday, then he hastens and rushes (for prayer), then he approaches the imam and remains silent, then for every step he takes (there is a reward) of fasting and prayer for a year, and who thus this is something easy for Allah ." (HR Ahmad and Ashhabus Sunnan , authenticated by Ibn Khuzaimah).
