However, if they are extremely long then do not wait for Friday.[1] Mufti Amjad ꜤAlī al-AꜤẓamī رَحْمَةُ الـلّٰـهِ عَـلَيْه states: It is narrated that the one who cuts his nails on Friday will be protected by Allah Almighty from calamities till the next Friday, and three more days, meaning, ten days. It is also narrated that by cutting the nails on a Friday, mercy arrives and sins depart.[2]
