Allah Says in the Holy Quran Chapter 62 Surah Jumua verses 9-11:
"O ye who believe! When the call is proclaimed to Prayer on Friday (the Day of Assembly) hasten earnestly to the Remembrance of Allah and leave off business (and traffic): that is best for you if ye but knew!
And when the Prayer is finished then may ye disperse through the land and seek of the Bounty of Allah: and celebrate the Praises of Allah often (and without stint): that ye may prosper.
But when they see some bargain or some amusement they disperse headlong to it and leave thee standing. Say: "The (blessing) from the Presence of Allah is better than any amusement or bargain! And Allah is the Best to provide (for all needs)."
To leave any and all worldly pursuits and earnestly attend the Friday mid-day sermon and congregational prayer is an absolutely obligatory Command of the Lord Most High upon those who have professed belief in Him and the Last Day.
Sunan of Abu-Dawood Hadith 1047 Narrated by Al-Ja'd ad-Damri
The Prophet (saws) said: “He who leaves the Friday Prayer (continuously) for three Fridays on account of slackness, Allah will print a stamp on his heart.”
The remembrance of Allah here means to be concern about the Friday prayer, what it entails and come to it with tranquility and humility. One should not ignore it or feel laziness in performing it. Those who ignore it or feel laziness in performing the Friday prayer; Allah will seal up their hearts and they will be among the heedless ones. It is narrated from Abdullah bin ‘Umar and Abu Hurairah (May Allah be pleased with them), that they heard the Messenger of Allah (PBUH) say, on the planks of his Minber (pulpit):
“People must cease neglecting Friday prayer, or Allah will put a seal over their hearts and they will truly be among the negligent.” (Muslim 865)
In another narration the Prophet (PBUH) said: “Whoever leaves three Friday prayers, considering it insignificant, Allah will place a seal upon his heart.” (Abu Dawud 1052). It is a tremendous loss, a great misfortune and deprivation. A person with a sealed heart becomes incapable of doing any deed of virtue
