One of the mistakes many of us make during Jumu‘ah often without realizing it is talking while the Imam is delivering the Khutbah on Jumuah.
The Prophet ﷺ said:
“If you say to your companion, ‘Be quiet,’ while the Imam is delivering the sermon, you have engaged in idle talk.”
[Sahih al-Bukhari & Muslim]
SubḥānAllāh! If merely telling someone to “keep quiet” invalidates your reward, what then is the fate of the one who actually talks, chats, or even answers phone calls during the Khutbah?
The Jumu‘ah Khutbah is part of the act of worship itself which is a moment when we are commanded to listen silently and reflect. Yet, some of us treat it like ordinary talk time.
Please, my brothers and sisters, let’s fear Allah and be attentive during Jumu‘ah. Turn off your phones, avoid distractions, and lend your full attention to the Imam.
May Allah accept our Jumu‘ah, forgive our shortcomings, and make us among those who listen to His words and follow them with sincerity.
