Arabic hadith text

وَعَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ قَالَ: قِيلَ لِلنَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: لِأَيِّ شَيْءٍ سُمِّيَ يَوْمَ الْجُمُعَةِ؟ قَالَ: «لِأَنَّ فِيهَا طُبِعَتْ طِينَةُ أَبِيكَ آدَمَ وَفِيهَا الصَّعْقَةُ وَالْبَعْثَةُ وَفِيهَا الْبَطْشَةُ وَفِي آخِرِ ثَلَاثِ سَاعَاتٍ مِنْهَا سَاعَةٌ مَنْ دَعَا الله فِيهَا اسْتُجِيبَ لَهُ» . رَوَاهُ أَحْمد

Abu Huraira reported that the Prophet was asked why Friday is called by that name. He replied: Because on it the clay of your father Adam was fashioned, and on it will be the blast, the resurrection, and the great assault. In the last three hours of Friday there is an hour when whoever supplicates to God will be answered. Ahmad transmitted it.
