Three men attended after the Friday prayer had ended; are they required to deliver the sermon?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : First, some scholars mention that if three people find the Dajjal after the imam has arrived and prayed, they are required to deliver the sermon and pray.

The Shaykh : Thus, the Friday prayer is equal to two.

The questioner : Yes, indeed, it is obligatory for them because it is a time-bound obligation.

The Shaykh : This is anomalous in practice and anomalous in evidence. The evidence is clear, because this was not customary among the Companions. Also, the Messenger said:
Whoever catches up with with a Rak'ah of Jumu'ahمن أدرك ركعة من الجمعة
Sunan an-Nasa'i 557
He has caught the Friday prayer, and the Friday prayer is not established more than once in the time of the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him).
