Question:
We will take the questions that have come in for this session. This brother, 'Abdullah, says: Your Excellency the Shaykh, may Allah preserve you, are the regular voluntary prayers (rawatib) after the Friday prayer two rak'ahs or four? And if he prays at home, how many does he pray? May Allah benefit you.
Answer:
The regular voluntary prayer (sunnah rawatib) after Friday: there is no regular voluntary prayer before Friday, only after it. The minimum is two rak'ahs, and the maximum is six rak'ahs, with three taslims. This is the most complete and perfect form. If he prays it in the mosque, two rak'ahs are sufficient. If he prays it at home, he prays four rak'ahs or six rak'ahs, with a taslim after every two. Yes.
