We supplicate day and night for our dua’s to come true. How about if we know about a certain moment in which we make dua and it comes true? Yes there is a moment and it occurs on the day of Friday. A hadith narrated by Abu Hurairah indicates about it:

"There is a time on Friday at which a Muslim, while he (or she) is performing Salat and is supplicating, will be granted whatever he (or she) is supplicating for." And he (PBUH) pointed with his hand to indicate that this period of time is very short. [Al-Bukari and Muslim]

The above hadith mentions about a specific moment (that occurs on Friday) in which every prayer that a person makes is granted with the condition that what one is asking for is good and lawful. It is a very short lived moment i.e. it’s equal to the distance between index and middle finger. The specific time when it occurs has also not been revealed. For this reason one should remember Allah frequently and pray to Him on Jumu'ah so that one attains that moment when prayers are answered. Prayers can also be answered outside Salat if one happens to be supplicating at the specified moment.

Abu Hurairah (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: The Messenger of Allah (PBUH) said,

"If anyone performs Wudu' properly, then comes to the Friday prayer, listens to the Khutbah (religious talk) attentively and keeps silent, his (minor) sins between that Friday and the following Friday will be forgiven, with the addition of three more days; but he who touches pebbles has caused an interruption."

[Muslim]

Commentary:

There are three things that should be done on Fridays: performing the whdu properly, listening to the khutbah attentively, and keeping silent. A person who does all three will have sins forgiven between two consecutive Fridays with the addition of three more days.

1. Performs ablution properly means to do it in accordance with the Sunnah of the Prophet (PBUH). One should not exceed the prescribed limits, nor should one use water extravagantly and should wash every organ of the body involved in wudu, at the most for three times. This Hadith also makes it evident that it is more meritorious to perform wudu at home.

2. Sins of ten days are pardoned because every virtue has at least ten-times reward. Here sins means minor sins as the major ones.

3. One should listen to the Khutbah quietly with full attention. One must avoid toying with anything (such as straws, one's watch, etc.) that diverts the attention and deprives from the reward of jummah.
