The time for entering the Friday prayer and the ruling on performing it early

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Also, this question is related to the Friday prayer. He asks: When does the time for the Friday prayer begin? Some people pray the Friday prayer twenty minutes before the time begins. What is the ruling on that?

Answer:
The time for the Friday prayer begins when the time for the midday prayer begins. This is the view of the majority of scholars. It is not permissible to pray it before the time for the midday prayer begins, before the sun passes its zenith. This is not permissible. So advise this person and explain to him that he is mistaken. Yes.
