Lucky or unlucky, Friday is one of the most popular days in the week. TGIF is the commonly used acronym meaning "Thank Goodness It's Fiday!". There is even a popular restaurant that goes by the name, claiming that whenever you eat there it is Friday. The love for the day is undoubtedly engendered by the fact that in the Western World it is the last workday of the week. \nIn predominantly Moslem countries, Friday is a holy day, a day to gather in the mosques at noon for prayers and to spend the day in religious contemplation. \n\nThe name of the day is derived from yet another Norse God (in this case a goddess), Frigga. She was believed to be the wife of Odin and was the goddess of marriage and the hearth. The Roman's had named this day for their goddess of beauty, Venus. They called it "dies veneris". When the Germanic tribes invaded England they imposed their goddess upon the day meant to honor Venus. The day was called frigedaeg, it has been corrupted over the centuries (since the 500's) to be "Friday". \n\nSince early times a Friday that falls on the 13th day of a month has been thought to be unlucky. Historians posit that this may be because there were thirteen persons present at the Last Supper of Christ and that this number proved unlucky; the following day (a Friday) Jesus was crucified. Find out when Friday the 13th falls for the rest of the year. \n\nThe Friday crucifiction spawned another Eastertime holiday known as Good Friday. The appellation, "good", was likely a corruption of the word, "God". So that Good Friday was originally, God's Friday, the day Christians believe God showed his love for the world by relinquishing his son.

Muslims have sabbath day, as you mentioned, on Friday. On that day all gather at mosque attend a sermon and prayers after that. Eventhough this prayer is compulsary unless there is some valid reasons, Islam do not forbid working rest of the day. These are the relevant verses from Quran\n\n "O you who believe! when the call is made for prayer on Friday, then hasten to the remembrance of Allah and leave off trading; that is better for you, if you know. " Quran  62:  9\n\n"But when the prayer is ended, then disperse abroad in the land and seek of Allah's grace, and remember Allah much, that you may be successful. " Quran 62: 10.

Spain is a predominantly Catholic country.  Easter is one of the major Catholic holidays, so the schools would naturally be closed.

Yes, they are opened.  They only close for federal holidays & today isn't one officially.

I've been to both. In reality, Jesus, and all others, when they were crucified, by Jewish custom had to be taken down from the cross (dead) before sunset Friday, which is why the Roman soldier put the spear through his side. They usually broke the legs of those crucified on the cross to hasten their death, but since Bible prophecy said that none of Jesus' bones would be broken, they stabbed him instead. So, I think they ought to have Good Friday services just before sunset, but in reality it doesn't really matter. It's the commemoration of the event that matters.

Easter is on the first Sunday after the first full moon after vernal equinox.  This is why the date varies from year to year.  Good Friday is simply the Friday before Easter.
