The ruling on one who missed the two Friday sermons

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, what about one who missed the two Friday sermons.

The Shaykh:
When?

The questioner:
He says: What about one who missed the two Friday sermons.

The Shaykh:
May Allah have mercy on you.

The questioner:
If one missed the Friday sermon, does he pray it as the midday prayer, even if he attended the Friday prayer with the imam?

The Shaykh:
My brother, in an authentic hadith
Whoever catches one Rak’ah of Friday prayerمن أدرك ركعة من صلاة الجمعة
Sunan Ibn Majah 1123Sahih (Darussalam)
let him add another prayer to it, and his Friday prayer is complete. The Friday prayer is not missed unless the imam raises his head from bowing in the second unit. The Friday prayer is missed. But if he catches the imam in the last unit and bows with him, he has caught the Friday prayer, yes.
