Reward Equivalent To A Year Of Fasting And Praying
From Aws Bin Aws Ath-Thaqafi who said I heard the Messenger of Allaah [ﷺ] saying:
❝Whoever performs a perfect Ghusl on Friday then goes very early to the Khutbah, walking and not riding, sits close to the Imam, listens and does not speak or keep himself busy then for every step towards the Khutbah is the reward equivalent to a year of fasting and praying.❞

Al-Mulla Ali Al-Qari [رحمه الله] said:
❝The people of knowledge say: ‘We do not know of a Hadeeth of the Prophet [ﷺ] which has more reward than this Hadeeth.’❞
