this is stated explicitly; and the chain of transmission of Ibn Mas'ūd’s hadith is stronger than all the other chains on this subject. Abū 'Abd Allāh ibn Battah also narrated it in al-Ibānah through another chain from Anas, stronger than the others. It includes the words:

“That is at the time corresponding to your departure from Friday prayer.”

Abū Ahmad ibn 'Adī narrated it through Sālih ibn Hayyān, from Ibn Buraydah, from Anas, but I do not know its wording. Abū 'Amr al-Zāhid narrated it through another chain whose wording I cannot recall. Abū al-'Abbās al-Sarrāj also narrated it: 'Alī ibn Ashyab narrated to us; Abū Badr narrated to us; Ziyād ibn Khaythamah narrated to us, from 'Uthmān ibn Muslim, from Anas ibn Mālik.

“Every seven days, they will have twice what they had before.”

He said: This is what Allah says in His Book:

“No soul knows what delights are kept hidden for them as a reward for what they used to do.”

Al-Ājurrī and Ibn Battah also narrated it from Ibn 'Abbās as traced back to the Prophet. It includes the words:

“Those seated nearest to Him are those who hasten most to Him on Friday and set out earliest.”
