I learned that Christians normally abandon their business and other activities to go to church on Sundays. I go through the Bible but did not see where God asked you to do so. Why then are you?

We attend Friday Prayers every Friday because Allah Most High says in the Quran:

"O you who believe! When the call for Friday prayer is made, hasten towards the remembrance of Allah Most High and leave all transactions. This is best for you if only you know." In this verse, "remembrance" refers to the Friday prayer and khutbah. "Hasten" means that one should go with great concern and care.

Why are you my brothers?

Q 62:9 "O you who believe! When the call for Friday prayer is made, hasten towards the remembrance of Allah Most High and leave all transactions. This is best for you if only you know." In this verse, "remembrance" refers to the Friday prayer and khutbah. "Hasten" means that one should go with great concern and care.

62:10 "And when the Prayer is finished, then may ye disperse through the land, and seek of the Bounty of Allah: and remember Allah frequently that ye may prosper".

62:11 "But when they see some bargain or some pastime, they disperse headlong to it, and leave thee standing. Say: "That which Allah has is better than any pastime or bargain! and Allah is the Best to provide (for all needs)."

There is nothing wrong in devotin a day for purpose of worship to God. If d Quran had nt instructed d muslim on friday worship, i bet they wld hv chosen 1 for themselves. Besides, christian dnt worship only on sundays, we do dat everyday

Isn't it good that even though the Bible does not mention any specific day of worship that ppl still decide to honour God and dedicate a day to Him without having it written that they must go on a specific day?  Better to give God the glory of free will than to do so simply because one is told to.

You mean those who go to church half naked? I used to see them wearing very-very revealing clothes. That type is not - will never be meant for a person like me. I will marry decency and spritually, morally and physically clean and pure wife. I will not marry sex happy women who used to deceive their pastors to commit adultery or punication. CARRY YOUR NAKEDNESS GO GIRL WE ARE LOOKING FOR DECENCY.

Compare and contrast on how Muslims women go to mosque and how Christian women go to church. Just tell yourself the right answer. Do not tell me because I already know the result.

U SAID U'VE READ THE BIBLE BUT I WONDER THE KIND ONE U READ OR DOES IT MEAN U ALSO CALL UR QURAN BIBLE TOO COS IF INDEED U READ AS U AV SAID U WOULD AV SEEN

Genesis 2
 1 Thus the heavens and the earth, and all the host of them, were finished. 2 And on the seventh day God ended His work which He had done, and He rested on the seventh day from all His work which He had done. 3 Then God blessed the seventh day and sanctified it, because in it He rested from all His work which God had created and made.
4 This is the history[a] of the heavens and the earth when they were created, in the day that the LORD God made the earth and the heavens, 5 before any plant of the field was in the earth and before any herb of the field had grown. For the LORD God had not caused it to rain on the earth, and there was no man to till the ground; 6 but a mist went up from the earth and watered the whole face of the ground.
7 And the LORD God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living being.

WE WORSHIP GOD NOT ONLY ON SUNDAY'S, IF U DON'T KNW WE ALSO GO TO CHURCH MONDAY TO SUNDAY BUT SUNDAY IS MOST IMPORTANT DAY 4 US ACCORDING 2 D DIRECTION 4RM BIBLE

BY D WAY IS FRIDAY'S U GUYS SEVEN DAY THAT GOD RESTED AFTER ALL THE THINGS HE DID ON EARTH?Huh?Huh?Huh? PLS EXPLAIN !!!!!!!!!!
