Sahih al-Bukhari 860 (Book 11, Hadith 6)
then goes for the prayer (in the first hour i.e. early), it is as if he had sacrificed a camel (in Allah’s
cause); and whoever goes in the second hour it is as if he had sacrificed a cow; and whoever goes in
the third hour, then it is as if he had sacrificed a horned ram; and if one goes in the fourth hour, then it
is as if he had sacrificed a hen; and whoever goes in the fifth hour then it is as if he had offered an
egg. When the Imam comes out (i.e. starts delivering the Khutba), the angels present themselves to
listen to the Khutba.”
“ مَنِ اغْتَسَلَ يَوْمَ الْجُمُعَةِ غُسْلَ الْجَنَابَةِ ثُمَّ رَاحَ فَكَأَنَّمَا قَرَّبَ بَدَنَةً، وَمَنْ رَاحَ فِي السَّاعَةِ الثَّانِيَةِ فَكَأَنَّمَا قَرَّبَ بَقَرَةً، وَمَنْ رَاحَ فِي السَّاعَةِ الثَّالِثَةِ فَكَأَنَّمَا قَرَّبَ كَبْشًا أَقْرَنَ، وَمَنْ رَاحَ فِي السَّاعَةِ الرَّابِعَةِ فَكَأَنَّمَا قَرَّبَ دَجَاجَةً، وَمَنْ رَاحَ فِي السَّاعَةِ الْخَامِسَةِ فَكَأَنَّمَا قَرَّبَ بَيْضَةً، فَإِذَا خَرَجَ الإِمَامُ حَضَرَتِ الْمَلاَئِكَةُ يَسْتَمِعُونَ الذِّكْرَ ”.
