Importance of Namaz-e-juma


Men are obligated to participate in Friday Prayer.

Allah (SWT) said in Surah Al-Jumuah, (verse 9), what can be translated as, "you who believe! When the call is proclaimed to Prayer on Friday hasten earnestly to the remembrance of Allah, and leave off business. That is best for you if you but knew."
In addition, Rasoolullah (SAW) had warned from not attending Friday Prayer.
Imam Muslim and Ahmad had reported that Rasoolullah (SAW) said about people who do not attend Friday Prayer,"I wanted to ask a man to lead people in the prayer so that I may go and burn houses of men who did not attend the Friday Prayer with us" He also said reported by Imam Muslim, Ahmad and Al-Nisai, "Either they (meaning people who do not attend the Friday prayer) stop neglecting Friday prayers or Allah will set a seal on their hearts so they can not find the right path again."
In another authentic hadith reported by Abu Dawod, Tirmidhi, Al-Nisai, and Ibn-Majah, that the Prophet (SAW) said, "Who ever does not attend three Friday prayers, (without a valid excuse) Allah will set a seal on his heart
