There is no day for congregational prayers, instead Muslims have an responsibility of praying everyday 5 times as a congregation together. However Friday is a more important day, So more Muslims pray. For example, if 40 Muslims pray in a normal congregation, then 400 Muslims pray on a Friday congregation.
Just like Sunday is a spacial day for Christian, Saturday for Jews, Friday is for Muslims.
Wisdom behind Congregational Salat and its Merits1- Knowing other brothers, loving each other for the sake of Allah and strengthening ties of love; without which, perfect faith would not have been easy to achieve. This is because, there is no path to faith and paradise except by loving for the sake of Allah.
2- Freedom from hypocrisy and the hell fire. This is for someone who meets the initiating Takbeer of every Salat for forty consecutive days. Anas , reported the Messenger of Allah ﷺ as saying: "Whosoever observes Salat for Allah for forty days in congregation, catching the first Takbeer, has gained two freedoms, both of which are written for him: freedom from hell and freedom from hypocrisy." [ Source: Al-Bukhari.]
3- Facilitating the reunion of Muslims and bringing their hearts together in goodness and righteousness.
4- Solidarity among the Muslims and helping one another in issues affecting them.
5- Demonstrating the religious rites and its strength.
