Friday Prayer


Narrated Ibn Umar: I heard Allah's Apostle
saying, "All of you are Guardians." Yunis said:
Ruzaiq bin Hukaim wrote to Ibn Shihab while I
was with him at Wadi-al-Qura saying, "Shall I
lead the Jumua prayer?" Ruzaiq was working
on the land (i.e farming) and there was a
group of Sudanese people and some others
with him; Ruzaiq was then the Governor of
Aila. Ibn Shihab wrote (to Ruzaiq) ordering
him to lead the Jumua prayer and telling him
that Salim told him that 'Abdullah bin 'Umar
had said, "I heard Allah's Apostle saying, 'All
of you are guardians and responsible for your
wards and the things under your care. The
Imam (i.e. ruler) is the guardian of his
subjects and is responsible for them and a
man is the guardian of his family and is
responsible for them. A woman is the
guardian of her husband's house and is
responsible for it. A servant is the guardian of
his master's belongings and is responsible for
them.' I thought that he also said, 'A man is
the guardian of his father's property and is
responsible for it. All of you are guardians and
responsible for your wards and the things
under your care."
