by Asma bint Shameem If you get sleepy during Jumu’ah khutbah, there are two things you can do. 1⃣ You can get up from where you’re sitting and move to another place in the masjid. The Prophet sal Allaahu Alayhi wa sallam said: “If any one of you become drowsy in the masjid on the day of Jumu’ah, and whilst the imaam is giving the khutbah, let him move from where he is to another spot.” (al -Baihaqi- saheeh by al-Albaani) 2⃣ You can exchange your place with someone next to you. The Prophet Sal Allaahu Alaiyhi wa Sallam said: “If one of you dozes during the Friday sermon, he should exchange his position with the person sitting next to him.”(al-Baihaqi - saheeh by al-Albaani) 🔺 What happens if i do fall asleep accidentally? Do I need to renew my wudhu? 🌿Although it’s not right that a person dozes off during Jumu’ah khutbah, it does happen sometimes involuntarily, and we can’t really help it. In this situation, you don’t need to do anything. This sleep is light and so it does not invalidate wudhu. Shaikh Ibn Baaz said: “Light sleep in which one does not lose consciousness does not invalidate wudoo’. It was narrated that the Prophet Sal Allaahu Alaiyhi wa Sallam used to delay ‘Ishaa prayer on some occasions, until the heads of the companions of the Messenger of Allaah Sal Allaahu Alaiyhi wa Sallam would droop, then they would pray and would not re-do wudoo.” (Fataawa al-Lajnah al-Daa’imah, 5/263) And Allaah knows best.
