What is the ruling on one who prolongs the greeting prayer of the mosque after the 'Asr prayer in order to catch the hour of response?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, a man has the habit of entering the mosque in the last hour of Friday after 'Asr. He prays the greeting prayer of the mosque and prolongs it in order to catch the hour of response. Is this action prescribed?

Answer:
No. Supplication in the hour of Friday does not take place in prayer. As for the saying of the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him), "he is standing praying," meaning he is standing supplicating, meaning he is standing making du'a', because supplication is called prayer. However, that it is prescribed to pray specifically for the sake of supplication in the hour of Friday, this is something that has not been transmitted. Yes.
