Benefits of the Hadith: (A man does not take a bath on Friday, purify himself as much as he can, and apply oil from his oil...) with explanation.

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh : In this is evidence that it is recommended for a person to adopt these descriptions and actions mentioned by the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him): taking a bath on Friday, perfecting purification to the extent of one's ability, and applying oil from one's oil, or as he said:
or perfumes himself with the scent of his house أن يمس من طيب بيته
Sahih al-Bukhari 883
and the meaning is perfume, even if it is from the perfume of the house. The perfume of the house is generally not strong-smelling, because it is a woman's perfume, as came in some narrations
from the perfume of his family من طيب أهله
meaning the least amount of perfume is sufficient, but it is better that it be from the best perfume one finds. Also,
then proceeds (for the Jumua prayer) and does not separate two persons sitting together (in the mosque) يخرج فلا يفرق بين اثنين
Sahih al-Bukhari 883
unless there is a gap between them and he sits in it, then there is no harm. But if he sits between them, squeezing them and separating them, this is a transgression and a harm. Also,
then prays as much as (Allah has) written for him ثم يصلي ما كتب له
Sahih al-Bukhari 883
the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) did not specify, and this is evidence that there is no regular voluntary prayer (sunnah rawatib) before Friday prayer, and that is the case. One prays as much as he wishes, then listens when the imam speaks.
The apparent meaning of this hadith is that the prayer is connected to the imam's emergence. So some scholars used it as evidence that there is no prohibition at the time of the sun's zenith in Friday prayer, because the imam comes at the zenith, before the zenith, or shortly after the zenith, and this necessitates that there is no prohibition. But this is not strong enough to specify the hadiths indicating the prohibition of prayer when the sun is rising until it reaches its zenith. Therefore, the stronger opinion is that there is no prayer when the sun is rising until it reaches its zenith, not on Friday nor on any other day, except for one who enters this time. Here, he prays, and what he prays is? The greeting of the mosque, because there is no prohibition regarding the greeting of the mosque, since any prayer that has a cause has no prohibition against it.
And his saying
remains silent while the Imam is delivering the Khutba ينصت إذا تكلم الإمام
Sahih al-Bukhari 883
speaks with what? With the sermon.
