[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Indeed, Allah sends the angels on the day of Friday to the doors of the mosques. They write down the names of the people who come first, second, third, fourth, fifth, and sixth. When they reach the seventh, they are like those who gather around birds."  

الطبراني:١٨٤٤٠حَدَّثَنَا الْوَلِيدُ بْنُ حَمَّادٍ ثنا سُلَيْمَانُ ثنا بِشْرُ بْنُ عَوْنٍ ثنا بَكَّارُ بْنُ تَمِيمٍ عَنْ مَكْحُولٍ عَنْ وَاثِلَةَ قَالَ

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «إِنَّ اللهَ يَبْعَثُ الْمَلَائِكَةَ يَوْمَ الْجُمُعَةِ عَلَى أَبْوَابِ الْمَسَاجِدِ يَكْتُبُونَ الْقَوْمَ الْأَوَّلَ وَالثَّانِيَ وَالثَّالِثَ وَالرَّابِعَ وَالْخَامِسَ وَالسَّادِسَ فَإِذَا بَلَغُوا السَّابِعَ كَانُوا بِمَنْزِلَةِ مَنْ قَرَّبَ الْعَصَافِيرَ»
