Friday congregational prayer
Jumu‘ah
Gather, listen and pray together.
Two congregational fard rak‘ahs after the khutbah, replacing Dhuhr for those attending a valid Jumu‘ah. Listen to the sermon. It is not simply a two-rak‘ah replacement offered alone.
How Jumu‘ah breaks down
Jumu‘ah · 4 Sunnah· Before sermon & Fardh · 40 steps
A regular, emphasized practice of the Prophet. Keep it distinct from the obligatory prayer; this Hanafi schedule gives it its own beginning and ending.

This is the required part. Give obligatory worship priority when learning and maintaining your prayers. Its place in the timeline does not make it less important than the Sunnah before it.
