1107 - حَدَّثَنَا مَحْمُودُ بْنُ خَالِدٍ، حَدَّثَنَا الْوَلِيدُ، أَخْبَرَنِي شَيْبَانُ أَبُو مُعَاوِيَةَ، عَنْ سِمَاكِ بْنِ حَرْبٍ، عَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ سَمُرَةَ السُّوَائِيِّ، قَالَ: «كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ لَا يُطِيلُ الْمَوْعِظَةَ يَوْمَ الْجُمُعَةِ، إِنَّمَا هُنَّ كَلِمَاتٌ يَسِيرَاتٌ»

Commentary
A Friday Khuṭbah should be not be unnecessarily lengthy, and an earlier chapter elaborated on details about topics, giving an indication of its length. In number 2009 of Ṣaḥīḥ Muslim the Messenger of Allāh indicated that the brief Khuṭbah, and lengthy prayer is a sign of understanding of the religion. In number 1006, the author narrated a version in which is the order to keep the Khuṭbah brief.
