Arabic hadith text
حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ أَبِي عَقِيلٍ، وَمُحَمَّدُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ الْمِصْرِيَّانِ، قَالاَ حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ وَهْبٍ، - قَالَ ابْنُ أَبِي عَقِيلٍ - أَخْبَرَنِي أُسَامَةُ، - يَعْنِي ابْنَ زَيْدٍ - عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ شُعَيْبٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَمْرِو بْنِ الْعَاصِ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم أَنَّهُ قَالَ ‏"‏مَنِ اغْتَسَلَ يَوْمَ الْجُمُعَةِ وَمَسَّ مِنْ طِيبِ امْرَأَتِهِ - إِنْ كَانَ لَهَا - وَلَبِسَ مِنْ صَالِحِ ثِيَابِهِ ثُمَّ لَمْ يَتَخَطَّ رِقَابَ النَّاسِ وَلَمْ يَلْغُ عِنْدَ الْمَوْعِظَةِ كَانَتْ كَفَّارَةً لِمَا بَيْنَهُمَا وَمَنْ لَغَا وَتَخَطَّى رِقَابَ النَّاسِ كَانَتْ لَهُ ظُهْرًا ‏"
Translation
'Abd Allah b. 'Amr al-'As reported the Prophet (ﷺ) as saying

Whoever takes a bath on Friday, touches some of his wife's perfume—if she has any—wears from his best clothes, does not step over the necks of people, and does not engage in idle talk during the sermon, it will be an expiation for what is between them. And whoever engages in idle talk and steps over the necks of people, it will be [reckoned as] a Zuhr prayer for him.
