Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Is there a report that there are two rak'ahs before the Friday sermon?
Answer:
There is no regular voluntary prayer (rawatib) before the Friday prayer. Rather, whoever attends should pray whatever is easy for him, the minimum being the greeting of the mosque. If he prays more than that, it is better. If he prays from the time he enters until the imam arrives, it is better and better. However, there is no regular voluntary prayer (rawatib) for it; the regular voluntary prayer (rawatib) is after it.
