Summary
A sound hadith mentions a particular moment on Friday when a Muslim's supplication is granted, and scholars differ on when it falls, with Ibn al-Qayyim listing 11 views. The two strongest views are the period from when the imam sits on the pulpit until the prayer ends, and the period after the asr prayer. This ruling prefers the second view, from asr until sunset, because its evidence is more abundant and stronger and it accords with the practice of the companions and early generations such as Said bin Jubair.
Written in our own words from the original fatwa — check the source before acting on it.
kami cenderung untuk memilih pendapat yang kedua iaitu waktu yang mustajab pada hari Jumaat adalah selepas asar sehinggalah terbenamnya matahari.
