The Friday Jumah Prayers Essentials -
The Sermon Etiquettes
Which acts are Sunnat for believers during sermon?
Answer:
The believers who gathered for Jumu'h prayer must heed the Imaam. Those sitting before Imaam should face him and those sitting on the right side or left should turn their faces towards him.
It is better to be close to the Imaam but do not jump over the necks of the believers for the purpose. A Hadees in this context warns:
"If anybody jumps over the necks of people on Friday makes a path to hell". However, one can go to the front row(s) if space is there provided that the Imaam has not yet ascended the pulpit.
Late comers should sit wherever they find place instead of intruding into front rows. During sermon, believers should sit in the same position as in prayer.
