Is there a regular voluntary prayer (sunnah rawatib) before the Friday prayer (Jumu'ah) for which there is a directive from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him)?

Question:
Is there a regular voluntary prayer (sunnah rawatib) before the Friday prayer (Jumu'ah) for which there is a directive from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him)?

Answer:
Before the Friday prayer (Jumu'ah), there is no regular voluntary prayer (sunnah rawatib); the Friday prayer (Jumu'ah) has no regular voluntary prayer (sunnah rawatib) before it. However, it is recommended (mustahabb) to go early to the Friday prayer (Jumu'ah). When a Muslim enters the mosque, he should occupy himself with the remembrance of Allah (Glorified and Exalted is He). He prays the greeting of the mosque (tahiyat al-masjid), which is two units (rak'ahs). If he wishes, he sits and remembers Allah or recites the Qur'an until the imam arrives. If he wishes, he continues the voluntary prayer (nafilah) until the imam comes out, and this is better. Continuing the voluntary prayer (nafilah) until the imam comes out is better. If he limits himself to the greeting of the mosque (tahiyat al-masjid) and sits, there is nothing wrong with that. If he prays more than the greeting of the mosque (tahiyat al-masjid) and then sits, there is also nothing wrong with that. So the matter is broad in this regard, and praise be to Allah. However, what is required of the Muslim is to go early to the Friday prayer (Jumu'ah) and occupy himself with the remembrance of Allah, whether through prayer, recitation of the Qur'an, glorification (tasbih), or declaring the greatness of Allah (tahlil), until the imam arrives. As for after the Friday prayer (Jumu'ah), it is recommended (mustahabb) for the Muslim to pray the regular voluntary prayer (sunnah rawatib) of the Friday prayer (Jumu'ah). The minimum for the regular voluntary prayer (sunnah rawatib) after the Friday prayer (Jumu'ah) is two units (rak'ahs), and the maximum is four units (rak'ahs) with two closings (taslim). Some scholars distinguish and say that if one prays the regular voluntary prayer (sunnah rawatib) of the Friday prayer (Jumu'ah) in his house, he prays two units (rak'ahs), and if he prays it in the mosque, he prays four units (rak'ahs). This is because the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) commanded the prayer of four units (rak'ahs) after the Friday prayer (Jumu'ah), while he (peace and blessings be upon him) would go out and pray two units (rak'ahs) in his house. This indicates that whoever prays the regular voluntary prayer (sunnah rawatib) of the Friday prayer (Jumu'ah) in his house limits himself to two units (rak'ahs), and whoever prays the regular voluntary prayer (sunnah rawatib) of the Friday prayer (Jumu'ah) in the mosque after the Friday prayer (Jumu'ah) prays four units (rak'ahs) with two closings (taslim). Yes. May Allah reward you with good.
