But just a quick gentle reminder to us all to read Surat Kahf!! :-)
 
Narrated Abu Huraira: I heard Allah's Apostle (p.b.u.h) saying, "We (Muslims) are the last (to come) but (will be) the foremost on the Day of Resurrection though the former nations were given the Holy Scriptures before us. And this was their day (Friday) the celebration of which was made compulsory for them but they differed about it. So Allah gave us the guidance for it (Friday) and all the other people are behind us in this respect: the Jews' (holy day is) tomorrow (i.e. Saturday) and the Christians' (is) the day after tomorrow (i.e. Sunday)."
 
There are saheeh ahaadeeth from the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) concerning the virtues of reciting Soorat al-Kahf during the day or night of Jumu’ah (Friday). These include:

(a) From Abu Sa’eed al-Khudri, who said: “Whoever reads Soorat al-Kahf on the night of Jumu’ah, will have a light that will stretch between him and the Ancient House (the Ka’bah).”
(Narrated by al-Daarimi, 3407. This hadeeth was classed as saheeh by Shaykh al-Albaani in Saheeh al-Jaami, 6471)

(b) “Whoever reads Soorat al-Kahf on the day of Jumu’ah, will have a light that will shine from him from one Friday to the next.”
(Narrated by al-Haakim, 2/399; al-Bayhaqi, 3/249. Ibn Hajar said in Takhreej al-Adhkaar that this is a hasan hadeeth, and he said, this is the strongest report that has been narrated concerning reading Soorat al-Kahf. See: Fayd al-Qadeer, 6/198. It was classed as saheeh by Shaykh al-Albaani in Saheeh al-Jaami’, 6470)

The soorah may be read during the night or the day of Jumu’ah. The night of Jumu’ah starts from sunset on Thursday, and the day of Jumu’ah ends at sunset. Therefore the time for reading this soorah extends from sunset on Thursday to sunset on Friday.

Al-Mannaawi said:
Al-Haafiz ibn Hajar said in his Amaali: “In some reports it says ‘the day of Jumu’ah’ and in some reports it says ‘the night of Jumu’ah’. They may be reconciled by saying that what is meant is the day which includes the night and vice versa.” (Fayd al-Qadeer, 6/199)

Al-Mannaawi also said:
“It is recommended to read it during the day or night of Jumu’ah, as al-Shaafa'i (may Allaah have mercy on him) stated.” (Fayd al-Qadeer, 6/198)

Time to recite Surah Al-Kahf.
 
Done. First thing in the morning when I woke up but going to do a second one on my way to the Mosque and then a third one before the Friday sermon.

One hour left for maghrib - still got time In sha Allah.

Also don't forget Sa’at al istijabah (a time when du’a is answered) :).

So what is Sa’at al istijabah?

According to a Hadith narrated by Jabir (RA) the Prophet Sall Allahu ‘alayhi wa sallam said: “Friday is comprised of twelve hours. There is one in which a Muslim who asks Allah for something will have it granted to him. Seek it in the last hour after `Asr.”

[Sunan Abî Dâwûd (1048), Sunan al-Nasâ’î (1389) and Mustadrak al-Hâkim(1032)]

This is known as Sa’at al istijabah (a time when du’a is answered)

“Note: It’s NOT ‘Salat’ (prayer), it’s Sa’at (time) of istijabah (response).”

[Sheikh Abu Abdissalam]


What time does it occur?

As the hadith stated, it is in the final hour of the day i.e. if Maghrib begins in your country at 8pm then Sa’at al istijabah would be between 7pm – 8pm.

And that’s it folks, very simple, yet a forgotten Sunnah. Make sure you let others know too. And remember guys – Ask for Allah to grant you Jannatul Firdaws, enter you into paradise without any hisaab (judgement), grant you forgiveness, invite you to Hajj, grant you a blissful marriage/a companion that will be the coolness of your eyes, grant you success in this world and the akhirah (hereafter), grant you understanding, knowledge and so on. Remember folks you are speaking to Allah The All-Mighty!
