my people will be shown to me every Friday. "(Baihaqi

ligoirihi-that is, hasan is seen from other paths. See Shahih At Targhib wa At
Tarhib no. 1673).

Surat Al-Ikhlas, An-Nas, Al-Falaq Each 7 Times
In addition to the four practices above, there is one more
special deeds that can be done on Friday. This is by reading the 3 letters of
the end of the Qur'an namely An-Nas, Al-Falaq, and Al-Ikhlas respectively 7
times. There is also the time of its implementation is after Friday prayers,

There is much history about the virtue of reading these
three letters in the time after Friday Prayer. Thus, it is known whoever does
this deed, then Allah will take care of himself, his family and the property of
his pengamal. In other narrations some say God will forgive until coming Friday
again.
