Commentary
Five times a day, Muslims of an area, street and ward are commanded to gather in a mosque. Then one day of every week is specified on which the people from various streets and wards should get together in a main mosque; and they should not have Friday prayers in every street. The time of noon prayer is fixed for this gathering in order to make the gathering easy for all; but unfortunately, these days, we have lost the important objective of it by having Friday gathering in every street mosque; instead of educating and giving good advice to the people, some other objectives are being propagated and secured. The real objective of the Friday gathering is to create awareness of participating and sharing mutual good and sad occasions and to create the spirit of mutual kindness and welfare, but sadly it has been lost. The seed of disunity and disruption is being sown in mosques instead of creating an atmosphere of unity and harmony! [ʿAridatul-Aḥwadhi: 2 / 275]
