Does the Jumu`ah Prayer have a specific time other than the time of Zhuhr Prayer?

Q 1: Does the Jumu`ah (Friday) Prayer have a specific time other than the time of Zhuhr (Noon) Prayer?


A 1: The time of offering the Jumu`ah Salah is the same time as that of Zhuhr (Noon) Salah, according to the most authentic of the two opinions of scholars. It begins at noon and ends at the approach of the time of the `Asr (Afternoon) Salah. This was authentically reported from the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) who would offer the Jum`ah Salah at the time of the Zhuhr Salah.May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.
