So the normal time of qaylulah is before Dhuhr. The exception is on Jumu'ah, as Al-Bukhari and Muslim record that the Companions never used to take this rest until after they had prayed Jumu'ah. They would then take lunch and rest. Scholars point out that this was because the Companions were keen not to miss the virtue of getting ready for Jumu'ah by bathing and leaving early to pray as much as possible before the khutbah. Allah knows best.

Do you know what the Salaf have said with regards to which is preferable - to take the nap before Dhuhr or after Dhuhr?
