Friday Prayers ~ Ruling on not going to Jumu’ah

What is the punishment ofnot going to salat al jummah. Can you please
back up the answer with ahadith.
Praise be to Allaah.
If a person for whom Jumu'ah is obligatory doesnot attend and does not
have a valid excuse, this is a major sin. Whoever doesnot attend three
Jumu'ahs (in a row) out of negligence has a seal placed over his heart
and is regarded as one of the ghaafileen (negligent, heedless). Muslim
narratedin his Saheeh from Abu Hurayrah and Ibn 'Umar (may Allaah be
pleased with them both), that theyheard the Prophet (peace and
blessings of Allaah be upon them) say from his minbar: "People should
definitely stop neglecting Jumu'ah, or else Allaah willmost certainly
seal their hearts and they will most certainly be among the
ghaafileen."
According to another hadeeth: "Whoever neglects three jumu'ahs (in a
row) out of negligence will have a sealplaced upon his heart." This is
a spiritual punishment, which is more severe that a physical
punishment such as imprisonment or flogging. The Muslim ruler should
punish those who fail to attend Jumu'ah prayers with no excuse, as a
deterrent. Let each Muslim fear Allaah and notmiss performing one of
the obligatory duties enjoined by Him, lest he expose himself to the
punishment of Allaah; let him adhere to that which Allaah has made
obligatory so that he may earn the reward of Allaah. And Allaah
bestows His Bounty upon whomsoeverHe wills.
