Al-Harari explained that "Jumu'ah" in the hadith means "week." An example of this is Muslim's hadith: "Indeed, the people of Paradise will have a marketplace which they will visit every Jumu'ah," meaning every week. Muhammad Fu'ad 'Abd al-Baqi commented that the meaning is "in the span of every Jumu'ah, i.e., a week."
