A forgotten Sunnah:- Making Du'aa on Wednesday between Dhuhr and 'Asr



:: Do you know, Dua' is answered on Wednesdays between zuhr and 'asr...! ::

.
جابر بن عبد الله يقول : دَعَا رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي هَذَا المَسْجِدِ ، مَسْجِدُ الفَتْحِ ، يَوْمَ الاثْنَيْنَ وَيَوْمَ الثَلاَثَاءِ وَيَوْمَ الأَرْبَعَاءِ ، فَاسْتَجَيْبَ لَهُ بَيْنَ الصَّلاَتَيْنَ مِنْ يَوْمَ الأَرْبَعَاءِ قَالَ جَابِرُ : وَلَمْ يَنْزِلْ بِي أَمْرٌ مُهِّمٌ غَائِظٌ إِلاَ تُوَّخَيْتُ تِلْكَ السَّاعَةَ ، فَدَعَوتُ اللهَ فِيهِ بَيْنَ الصَّلاَتَيْنَ يَومَ الأَرْبَعَاءِ فِي تِلْكَ السَّاعَةَ ، إِلاَ عَرَفْتُ الإِجَابَةَ
.


Jaabir Ibn 'Abdullaah (radiAllaahu 'anhumma) said:
.
"The Messenger of Allaah (صلى الله عليه وسلم) supplicated to Allaah in this masjid (Masjid Al-Fat-h)on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday. His du'aa was answered on Wednesday between the prayers of Dhuhr and 'Asr." 


Jaabir said: "There wasn't anything that was crucially important for me to have solved except I called on Allaah during that hour of the day between Dhuhr and 'Asr, knowing He would answer."
.
[Bukhaaree in Adab Al-Mufrad (no. 703); graded hasan by Al-Albaanee in SaheehAdab Al-Mufrad]


.

Shaykh Hussain Awayaasha (may Allâah preserve him ) said in his explanation of Saheeh Adab Al-Mufrad.


“The Messenger of Allâah (peace and blessings be upon him) supplicated to Allâah in this Masjid (Masjid Al-Fath ) on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday” 

Masjid Al-Fath: is a Masjid located on the eastside at the top of a mountain stump. A person can ascend to this Masjid by two routes; one on the east and the other on the north side. This is the general meaning of Masjid al-Fath. It has also been said that Masjid Al-Fath is Masjid Ahzab or a Masjid on High ground. [ Fadl 2/174]

“His dua was answered on Wednesday between the prayers of Dhuhr and Asr” . 

Shaykh Al-Albani(may Allâah shower him with mercy) commented on this saying: If this companion wouldn’t have narrated to us that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) made Dua to Allâah during this hour we wouldn’t have known. 
The person present witnesses what the absent person doesn’t. 

This ahadeeth has significant meaning; since Jabir narrated the information when exactly his dua was answered. And this shows that the Dua for the Messenger (peaceand blessings be upon him) was answered at that hour during Wednesday. Consequently Jabir began to do that same thing he saw Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) do on Wednesday between Dhuhr and Asr. 

End of Quote from the book.

Ibn Taymeeyah (728H) said in his book “ Iqtedahus Siratul Mustaqeem (1/433), ” 

A group of our companions and other people act by this hadeeth. They see to it that they call on Allâah during this time; as narrated by Jabir (may Allâah be pleased with him). The place where Jabir made Dua to Allâah isn’t mentioned, but the time period in which he did is mentioned.
