Narrated Jabir bin Samurah (RA): The Prophet ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) used to deliver the Khutbah (religious talk, sermon) while standing. He ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) would then sit down and then stand up and deliver the Khutbah in a standing posture. So, whoever informs you that he [the Prophet ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم )] delivered the Khutbah (religious talk, sermon) while sitting has definitely told a lie. [Reported by Muslim] .

Narrated Jabir bin 'Abdullah (RA): Whenever Allah's Messenger ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) delivered a Khutbah (religious talk), his eyes would become red, his voice rose and his anger would become intensified, as if he ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) was like one warning an army and saying, "The enemy has made a morning attack on you. The enemy has made an evening attack on you." He ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) would also say "Amma ba'du, the best of speech is embodied in the Book of Allah, and the best of guidance is the guidance of Muhammad. And the most evil of affairs are their innovations and every innovation is misguidance." [Reported by Muslim] . And in a narration of Muslim: "In the Prophet's Khutbah on Friday: He would praise Allah and extol Him. Then, following that, he would say - and he had raised his voice..." And in another narration from Muslim: "Whoever Allah guides, no one can lead astray; and whoever Allah leads astray, no one can guide him." an-Nasa'i has: "Every misguidance is (a cause to enter) the Fire."

Narrated 'Ammar bin Yasir (RA): He heard Allah's Messenger ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) say: "The length of a man's prayer and the shortness of his Khutbah (religious talk) are a sign of his understanding (of the religion)." [Reported by Muslim] .

Umm Hisham (RA) daughter of Haritha said: I learnt Surat Qaf (Chapter 50) from no other source than the tongue of Allah's Messenger ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) who used to recite it every Friday on the pulpit when he delivered the Khutbah (sermon) to the people." [Reported by Muslim] .

Narrated Ibn 'Abbas (RA): Allah's Messenger ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) said: "Whoever speaks on Friday while the Imam is giving the Khutbah (religious talk), he is like a donkey which carries books; and he who tells him to be quiet has no Jumu'ah." [Reported by Ahmad with an acceptable chain of narrators] . This Hadith interprets the Marfu' Hadith [attributed to the Prophet ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم )] of Abu Hurairah reported in the Sahihain: On Friday, when the Imam is delivering the Khutbah (religious talk), if you say to your companion to keep quiet, then indeed you have committed a sin (error/something senseless).

Narrated Jabir (RA): A man entered the mosque on a Friday when the Prophet ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) was delivering the Khutbah (religious talk, sermon) and he [the Prophet ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم )] said, "Have you prayed?

[Reported by Muslim] .

Narrated Zaid bin Arqam (RA): The Prophet ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) prayed the 'Eid prayer (on a Friday); and granted a permission (to be excused) from the praying of Friday prayer and said, "Whoever wants to pray it, he may pray." [Reported by al-Khamsah excluding at-Tirmidhi. Ibn Khuzaimah graded it Sahih (authentic)] .

Narrated Abu Hurairah (RA): Allah's Messenger ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) said: "When anyone of you prays the Jumu'ah prayer, he should pray four (optional) Rak'at after it." [Reported by Muslim] .

Narrated as-Sa'ib bin Yazid (RA) that Mu'awiyah (RA) told him, "If you offer the Friday prayer, do not connect it with another prayer, till you talk or go out. Allah's Messenger ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) had commanded us accordingly: That we should not connect a prayer to another prayer till we talk or go out (in between them)." [Reported by Muslim]
