Ijumaa Kuu ni siku ya Ijumaa inayotangulia Pasaka ambapo Wakristo wengi duniani[1][2][3] wanaadhimisha na kushiriki[4] kifo cha Yesu Kristo msalabani[5][6][7]. Katika madhehebu mbalimbali, kama Kanisa Katoliki[8] na Makanisa ya Kiorthodoksi[4], lakini pia Waanglikana[9], Wamethodisti[1][10] na Walutheri [2][3] ni pia siku ya kufunga chakula.
Kufuatana na taarifa za Injili nne katika Biblia ya Kikristo, Yesu alisulubiwa siku kabla ya Sabato (Jumamosi), yaani Ijumaa. Mahali pa kumsulubisha palikuwa kilima cha Golgotha kilichokuwepo wakati ule nje ya kuta za mji wa Yerusalemu.
Tarehe
[hariri | hariri chanzo]Kadiri ya Injili ya Mtume Yohane, kesho yake ilikuwa Sabato na pia Pasaka, jambo lisilotokea kila mwaka. Kwa sababu hiyo wataalamu mbalimbali wameweza kukadiria ilikuwa tarehe 7 Aprili 30.
Sikukuu hii haina tarehe thabiti katika kalenda ya kawaida. Ilhali hutangulia Pasaka inafuata pia mabadiliko ya tarehe za Pasaka. Pamoja na mapokeo yaliyo tofauti kati ya Ukristo wa Magharibi (Wakatoliki na Waprotestanti wengi) na Ukristo wa Mashariki (makanisa ya Kiorthodoksi na Wakatoliki wa Mashariki), kuna tarehe mbili tofauti za Pasaka, na hivyo pia kila mwaka kuna tarehe mbili tofauti za Ijumaa Kuu.

Katika liturujia ya makanisa
[hariri | hariri chanzo]Ijumaa kuu ni sehemu ya Juma Kuu linaloanza kwa adhimisho la Yesu kuingia mji huo akishangiliwa kama mfalme wa Wayahudi (yaani Masiya au Kristo). Adhimisho hilo linafanyika mwanzoni mwa wiki, yaani Jumapili ya matawi.
Ijumaa kuu ni pia sehemu ya siku tatu kuu za Pasaka zinazoadhimisha mateso na kifo chake (Ijumaa), kulala kaburini (Jumamosi), na hatimaye kufufuka kwa utukufu (Jumapili), kwa ufupi:
- Yesu mteswa,
- mzikwa na
- mfufuka.
Ili kuelewa vema namna ya kuhesabu hizo siku tatu, ni lazima kujua kwamba kwa Wayahudi siku inaanza Jua linapotua, hivyo Ijumaa Kuu ilianza na usiku uliofuata Alhamisi kuu, Jumamosi kuu ilianza na usiku uliofuata Ijumaa, na Dominika ya Pasaka ilianza na usiku uliofuata Jumamosi. Pia walihesabu siku hata kama haikutimiza saa 24: basi, kwa kuwa Yesu alikufa Ijumaa alasiri, saa 3 hivi kabla ya jua kutua, kwao ilikuwa siku ya kwanza; Jumamosi nzima Yesu alibaki kaburini, ndiyo siku ya pili; usiku wa kuamkia Jumapili Yesu akafufuka, saa kadhaa baada ya jua kutua tena; ndiyo sababu Agano Jipya linatangaza alifufuka siku ya tatu.
Ibada nje ya liturujia
[hariri | hariri chanzo]Wakatoliki wengi, mbali ya kushiriki liturujia ya Kifo cha Yesu, siku hiyo wanafuata Njia ya Msalaba[11] na pengine wanafanya maandamano na sanamu ya maiti ya Yesu na ile ya Bikira Maria wa Mateso[12][13][14][15][16]. Miaka ya mwisho imeenea duniani kote ibada ya Huruma ya Mungu inayodai Ijumaa Kuu ianze novena itakayokamilika Dominika ya Pili ya Pasaka iliyotangazwa na Papa Yohane Paulo II kuwa sikukuu ya Huruma ya Mungu[17][18].
Kwa desturi iliyoenea kuanzia karne ya 16, hasa Waanglikana[19] siku hiyo wanahubiriwa kuhusu Maneno saba ya mwisho ya Yesu akiwa msalabani[20][21][22].
Katika kalenda za serikali
[hariri | hariri chanzo]Nchi nyingi huheshimu siku hiyo kwa kuruhusu wafanyakazi wapumzike[23], na pengine kuzuia michezo mbalimbali inayopingana na huzuni ya msiba huo.

The 'Three Hours' Devotion, borrowed from Roman usage, with meditation on the 'seven last words' from the Cross, and held from 12 till 3, when our Lord hung on the Cross, is a service of Good Friday that meets with increasing acceptance among the Anglicans.

Interestingly, the Methodist Book of Worship adopted by the General Conference of 1964 presented two services for Good Friday: a Three Hours' Service for the afternoon and a Good Friday evening service that includes the "Adoration at the Cross" (the Gospel, Deprecations, and Adoration of the Cross) but omits a communion service, which would be the Methodist equivalent of the Mass of the Presanctified.
