The Rawatib of the Friday Prayer and Its Ruling for the Traveler

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
A questioner says: Honorable Shaykh, peace be upon you. Does the Friday prayer have a rawatib? And is it waived for the traveler if he prays the Friday prayer with the congregation?

Answer:
Yes, the Friday prayer has a rawatib after it, following the Friday prayer. As for before it, it has no rawatib, but one may pray whatever is easy for him before it, not as a rawatib for the Friday prayer, but as a purely voluntary prayer. And after the Friday prayer, one prays the rawatib, the minimum of which is two rak'ahs and the maximum is four rak'ahs with two taslims, or six rak'ahs with three taslims. This is the rawatib of the Friday prayer. And the traveler, if he prays it with the imam and with the Muslims, he owes no rawatib because he is a traveler. The traveler owes no rawatib.
