were before us, For the Jews (the day set aside for prayer) was Saturday, and for the Christians it
was Sunday. And Allah turned towards us and guided us to Friday (as the day of Remembrance
and Prayer) for us. In fact, He (Allah) made Friday, Saturday and Sunday (as days of prayer). In
this order would they (Jews and Christians) come after us on the Day of Resurrection. We are the
last of (the Ummah) among the people in this world and the first among the created to be judged
on the Day of Resurrection. (Sahi Muslim: 1862)
