It includes the above-cited Hadīth in which Ibn ‘Umar (may Allah be pleased with him and his father) reported that he had performed two Rak‘ahs with the Prophet (may Allah’s peace and blessings be upon him) after the Friday prayer.
1126/1 - Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) reported that the Prophet (may Allah’s peace and blessings be upon him) said: “When anyone of you performs the Friday prayer, let him offer four Rak‘ahs after it.” [Narrated by Muslim]
1127/2 - Ibn ‘Umar (may Allah be pleased with him and his father) reported that after the Prophet (may Allah’s peace and blessings be upon him) performed the Friday prayer, he would not pray until he left (the mosque) and would offer two Rak‘ahs at home. [Narrated by Muslim]
1) The Friday prayer has no Rawātib Sunnah before it like the Zhuhr prayer, because the rulings on the Zhuhr prayer do not apply by analogy to the Friday prayer.
2) The Sunnah after the Friday prayer is authentically reported as two or four Rak‘ahs. As deduced from the relevant Hadīths, he who offers the Sunnah of the Friday prayer in the mosque ought to offer four Rak‘ahs, and if he prays it at home, he ought to offer it as two Rak‘ahs.
In Zād al-Ma‘ād Fi Hady Khayr al-‘Ibād, Ibn al-Qayyim (may Allah have mercy upon him) said: “When Bilāl finished the Adhān, the Prophet (may Allah’s peace and blessings be upon him) would begin the sermon without anyone offering two Rak‘ahs at all. There was only one Adhān, which indicates that the Friday prayer is like the Eid prayer in terms of having no Sunnah prayer before it. This is the more correct scholarly opinion and the one indicated by the Prophet’s Sunnah. The Prophet (may Allah’s peace and blessings be upon him) would come out of his house, and when he ascended the pulpit, Bilāl would make the Adhān for the Friday prayer. As he finished it, the Prophet would begin the sermon immediately. This happened before people’s eyes. So, when did they perform a Sunnah prayer? Whoever thinks that when Bilāl (may Allah be pleased with him) finished the Adhān, they would all stand up and offer two Rak‘ahs are the most ignorant of the Sunnah. This opinion we have mentioned, which says that there is no Sunnah prayer before the Friday prayer, was held by Mālik, it was the more famous opinion reported from Ahmad, and it was one of two views held by the companions of Al-Shāfi‘i.”
