[Machine] On the authority of the Prophet ﷺ , he said: "When the day of Friday comes, the angels stand at the doors of the mosque and they write down the order of the creation (i.e. who comes first and so on). The emigrant (i.e. the one who comes from far away) is like the one who offers a camel, then like the one who offers a cow, then like the one who offers a ram, then like the one who offers a chicken, then like the one who offers an egg. When the Imam comes out and sits on the pulpit, they roll up their records and sit listening attentively to the sermon."

The Prophet ﷺ said, "When it is a Friday, the angels stand at the gate of the mosque and keep on writing the names of the persons coming to the mosque in succession according to their arrivals. The example of the one who enters the mosque in the earliest hour is that of one offering a camel (in sacrifice). The one coming next is like one offering a cow and then a ram and then a chicken and then an egg respectively. When the Imam comes out (for Jumua prayer) they (i.e. angels) fold their papers and listen to the Khutba."
