Firstly: Reciting out loud in the prayers in which the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) recited out loud, and silently in the prayers in which he recited silently, is one of the Sunnahs of prayer, not one of the obligatory duties.
The time interval for offering the Zuhr or Dhuhr prayer starts after the sun passes its zenith and lasts until 20 min (approx) before the call for the Asr prayer is to be given. Asr prayer cannot be offered before zuhr in the zuhr time.
In Islam, Friday prayer or Congregational prayer (Arabic: ?????? ??????????, ?alāt al-Jumuʿah) is a prayer (?alāt) that Muslims hold every Friday, just after noon instead of the Zuhr prayer. Jumu'ah means Friday in the Arabic language.
It is not forbidden to perform your prayers at home. It is permissible to perform prayers at any place provided that the land on which he is performing his prayers is not usurped or ritually impure.
The Friday prayers cannot be prayed at home. It needs to be offered in congregation at a mosque. If anyone misses it, or for some reason prays at home alone or with a small congregation (such as a few members of family), they need to pray four units of the noon prayers. And Allah knows best.
zuhr — The midday or afternoon prayer: 4 rakat sunnat then + 4 rakat fard + 2 rakat sunnat (followed by optional 2 rakat nufl) Asr — The evening prayer: 4 rakats fard (Optional 4 rakat sunnat before this)
This stretch of light can be loosely considered as the light of blessings and mercy of Allah. Thus, by reciting the Surah on Friday night one can get hold of such magnanimous mercy and blessings. Therefore, on Friday night, a Muslim must find time to sit down and read Surah al Kahf and become one of the blessed ones.
The Jumu'ah prayer is half the Zuhr (dhuhr) prayer, for convenience, preceded by a khutbah (a sermon as a technical replacement of the two reduced rakaʿāt of the ordinary Zuhr (dhuhr) prayer), and followed by a congregational prayer, led by the imām. In most cases the kha?īb also serves as the imam.
Praying sunnahs at home is much more rewarding than praying them in the masjid (according to one hadith, 25x as rewarding). The prophet never urged us to rush to the masjid and you could always make up the rakaa that u missed, whereas you can't make up the sunnah since it's before fajr.
There is consensus among all the Muslims regarding the Friday prayer (salat al-jumu'ah) being wajib in accordance with the Quranic verse, as well as the many traditions narrated both by Shi'i and Sunni sources.

At Friday prayers, also called Jummah, he preaches a sermon using words from the Qur'an. Before worshipping Allah, Muslims perform ritual washing called wudu, to prepare for prayer. Sunni Muslims wash their hands, mouth, nose, face, arms, forehead and hair, ears and feet three times - in that order.

Muslims do not pray for the benefit of Allah. Allah does not need human prayers because he has no needs at all. Muslims pray because God has told them that they are to do this, and because they believe that they obtain great benefit in doing so.

" The Prophet also said:"Whoever misses three Jumu'ah, being indifferent to them, Allah seals his heart".
You might question whether a mosque is even open to you, if it would intrusive and disrespectful to go into a place of worship where you believe differently. However, like most churches and other places of worship, most mosques welcome visitors of other faiths.
Shia Muslims, after the end of the prayer, raise their hands three times, reciting Allahu akbar whereas Sunnis look at the left and right shoulder saying taslim. Also, Shias often read "Qunoot" in the second Rakat, while Sunnis usually do this after salah.
It is a recommended Prayer without any fixed number of raka'ahs, and its time proper starts a little after sun rise (approximately fifteen minutes after sunrise) and extends up to the time of the declining of the sun from the meridian.
When praying in congregation, the people stand in straight parallel rows behind the chosen imam, facing qibla. The imam, who leads the congregation in salat, is usually chosen to be a scholar or the one who has the best knowledge of the Qur'an, preferably someone who has memorised it in its entirety (a hafiz) .
Muslims must pray as though they are in the presence of God, and therefore must be in a state of concentration. While moving into the upright position, Muslims recite 'God listens to the one who praises Him' and while in the standing position, 'To God belongs all praise' then is recited.
