Jummah,or Friday is the equivelant to the Sabbath for the Christians. Muslims go to the Mosque on this day and listen to the sermon, or Khutbah. The khutbah is the lesson taught by the Imam and usually last for about 30-45 minutes. The service is usually done in about 1 1/2 hours.

Salaat-ul-Jumma or Friday Prayer is offered in congregation. It is offered in place of Zhuhr Prayer. Each week on Friday, Muslims are required to take a bath, dress in their best clean clothes, wear perfume and assemble in the mosque for Friday Prayer. The Holy Quran and the Sunnah speak highly of the blessings of Jumm'a Prayer. If a Muslim spends Friday in the remembrance of God Almighty, supplicating before his Lord, he is abundantly rewarded by Allah. Friday Prayer is an occasion for the assembly of the Muslims of a whole city or a town. In a large city, Friday Prayer can be offered in more than one place for the convenience of the Muslim community. It gives them an opportunity to meet together to discuss and solve their individual as well as community problems. Getting together once a week develops unity, co-operation and cohesiveness among Muslims. Friday Prayer is also a demonstration of Islamic equality. It gives the Imam a chance to advise all Muslims at the same time on urgent matters that face them. The Imam's sermon gives them guidance in Islamic teachings. Friday Prayer is an obligatory Prayer for every adult male Muslim. However, those who are sick, blind or disabled, those on a journey, and women, are exempt from the obligation of attending the Prayer at the mosque. They can join in the Prayer if they so wish, but if they cannot attend the Friday Prayer, they have to offer Dhuhr (noon) prayer instead, as the Friday Prayer is offered in place of Dhuhr (noon) prayer. There are two Adhans for Friday Prayer. The first Athan is recited when the sun begins to decline and the second is recited just before the Imam stands up before the congregation to deliver his sermon. The sermon consists of two parts. In the first part the Imam, after the recitation of Att'-awwuz and Sura Fatiha, advises the gathering to act upon the commandments of Allah and also about the duties they have to perform to become good Muslims. The sermon can also deal with any other matter of importance. This part of the sermon can be delivered in any language. After delivering the first part of the sermon, the Imam sits down for a short while, then stands up again and starts with the second part which is in Arabic and which reads as follows: All praise is due to Allah. We laud Him, we beseech help from Him and ask His protection; we confide in Him, we trust Him alone and we seek protection against the evils and mischief of our souls and from the bad results of our deeds. Whomsoever He guides on the right path, none can misguide him; and whosoever He declares misled, none can guide him onto the right path. And we bear witness that none deserves to be worshipped except Allah. He is alone and has no partner. We bear witness that Muhammad is His servant and Messenger. O servants of Allah! May Allah be merciful to you. Verily, Allah commands you to act with justice, to confer benefits upon each other and to do good to others as one does to one 's kindred and forbids evil which pertain to your own selves and evils which affect others and prohibits revolts against a lawful authority. He warns you against being unmindful. You remember Allah; He too will remember you; call Him and He will make a response to your call. And verily divine remembrance is the highest virtue.

Jumm'ah is a weekly prayer of the Muslims that is being performed on Fridays.

Time of Jumm'ah is the same as the time of the daily Dhuhr prayer which is one minute after sun gets totally vertical, i.e. when you have no shadow.

The prayer starts by athan (calling for the prayer). Then Imam, usually on a rostrum, gives his religious speech in two parts, in between there is a short break, where the attending Muslims are given the chance to ask God for whatever they want. After that there is a call to perform the prayer, the praying Muslims stand in rows and the imam steps down to lead the prayer.

Muslims consider every Friday as a feast. Friday for Muslims is as Sunday for Christians.

Why jummah is playing a massive role in our religion?

What Muslims do on Friday or Jumu’ah? Is Jumma Namaz Farz? Friday is called Juma in Arabic. Friday is very special for all Muslims as because a Special Congregational Salah (Prayer) named Salat Al-Jumu’ah are offered on Friday. Muslims men require to attend Jumu’ah Prayer as long as they are not travelling, it’s Obligatory or Farz. Jumu’ah means “gathering of People”, on Friday Muslims gather in the Masajid (Place of Worship for Muslims) at just after noon and instead of regular mid-day Jahur Salah, Salat Al-Jumu’ah are offered. On the day of Jumu’ah, Muslims take care of cleaning their bodies, wearing clean and best clothes, grooming following Sunnah (as Prophet Muhammad S.W.S did and directed), giving Charity, reading Quraan, remembering Almighty Allah more, sending Darood or Blessings to Prophet Muhammad S.W.S etc.
