4. Friday Ṣalāh (Jumuʿah)
٤۔ كِتَابُ الْجُمُعَةِ
The Messenger of Allah ﷺ cursed the one who sat in the middle of a circle. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 4826)
أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ لَعَنَ مَنْ جَلَسَ وَسَطَ الْحَلْقَةِ
[Machine] "He should stand up, for indeed the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, cursed the one who sits in the middle of the gathering." The scholar said, "It is possible that he may have recognized from him hypocrisy and that he only did this purposely to abandon modesty and to show little concern for the people in the gathering."
لَهُ قُمْ فَإِنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ لَعَنَ الَّذِي يَجْلِسُ وَسَطَ الْحَلْقَةِ قَالَ الشَّيْخُ يُحْتَمَلُ أَنْ يَكُونَ قَدْ عَرَفَ مِنْهُ نِفَاقًا وَأَنَّهُ إِنَّمَا فَعَلَ ذَلِكَ قَصْدًا إِلَى تَرْكِ الْحِشْمَةِ وَقِلَّةِ الْمُبَالِاةِ بِأَهْلِ الْحَلْقَةِ
