That is better for you, if you only knew.\u201d
\nHe said: \u201cWhen pilgrims perform Hajj in its particular time and place, they will be as clean of sins as they are born newly. Worshiping at al-Qadr night is better than one thousand months. The night and day of Friday are also good opportunities for the believers.\u201d
\n\u201cFriday has been named \u2018Jum\u2019ah\u2019 because it is the day of Muslims\u2019 gathering. Muslims assemble and gather to carry out worships such as prayers and Hajj. Zakat is also for showing sympathy with others,\u201d Mawlana Badri added more.
\nThe senior Hadith teacher of Darululoom Zahedan said: \u201cFriday prayer is one of emblems of Muslims\u2019 gathering. People gather once a week in once place to carry out a divine order, get informed about each other\u2019s problems and show sympathy with them.\u201d
\nHe urged: \u201cOpening Friday prayers in all mosques of a town is in contrary to gathering of Muslims and the philosophy of the Friday prayers. Islam does not like it. Today Muslims offer prayers in Haramain Sharifain in one place. It is more likable for the Almighty to see His servants in one place instead of many groups and congregations.\u201d<\/p>\n

\nReferring to a Hadith, Mawlana Badri warned about abandoning the Friday prayers and said: \u201cFriday has a connection with human heart. If a person does not offer Friday prayers, he will turn into a corrupt and neglectful person. Such people only follow their desires.\u201d
\n\u201cNot only the Friday prayers, but the whole night and day of Friday are important; we should examine how we spend and pass these great moments. Regretfully, the number of worshipers decreases in the morning\/Fajr prayers of Fridays,\u201d he said.
\nAt the end of his speech, Mawlana Abdol-Ghani Badri reminded the audience about the special virtues of the ten days of Dhul-Hijjah where worshiping at night is equal to worshiping at al-Qadr night and fasting is equal to fasting of Ramadan.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
