How Should A Person Who Attends Friday Prayer Before Salam Establish The Missed Rakats After Salam?

How should a person who attends Friday prayer before salam establish the missed rakats after salam?

A person who attends Friday prayer before the imam gives salam is deemed to have caught it. This person completes his prayer alone after the imam gives salam. A person who comes to the mosque after the salam of imam is deemed to have missed the prayer (Kasani, Bada’i, I, 267).

A person who catches the second rakat of Friday prayer establishes one more rakat by standing up after the salam of imam and then gives salam. In this rakat that is established alone, he recites Subhanaka, Basmalah, Fatiha, and a surah or a few verses. A person who catches the imam while he recites tashahhud (during the sitting) stands up after the salam of imam and gives salam after establishing two rakats. Thereby he completes Friday prayer. A person who misses Friday prayer establishes that day’s dhuhr prayer. A person who fails to catch eid prayer misses that prayer; he does not need to establish another prayer instead.

According to Malikis and Shafi’is, one should establish at least one rakat with imam in order to be deemed to have caught the Friday prayer. Accordingly, a person who catches and starts to follow an imam after standing up from second rakat’s ruku completes his prayer to four as dhuhr prayer (Shirbini, Mughni al-muhtaj, I, 419; Harashi, Sharhu Mukhtasar, II, 84).
