أُفٍّ لِكُلِّ مُس لِمٍ لا يَج عَلُ فِي كُلِّ جُمُعَةٍ يَو ماً يَتَفَقَّهُ فيهِ أَم رَ دِينِهِ وَ يَس أَلُ عَن دِينِهِ.

The Holy Prophet (S) said: “Fie upon that Muslim who does not allocate (at least) one day a week to the study of the details of his religion and to explore (the affairs) of his religion.”
