Sayyiduna Jabir bin Samurah (may Allah be pleased with him) says: I have performed prayers with the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him). His prayer and sermon (both) were moderate. (That is, neither very long nor short.)

`Sayyiduna Jabir bin Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that Sulaik Ghatafani came on the day of Jumu’ah while the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) was sitting on the pulpit. Sulaik (may Allah be pleased with him) sat down without performing prayer. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "Have you prayed two rak‘ahs?" He replied, "No." So the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "Stand up and perform them."

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: When you say to your companion on the day of Jumu'ah, "Be quiet," while the Imam is delivering the sermon, then you have engaged in idle talk.

Abu Huraira (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates from the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) that he (peace be upon him) said: Whoever performs ghusl and comes for Jumu'ah, and prays as much as is destined for him, then remains silent until the sermon is finished, then prays with the Imam, then his sins from this Jumu'ah to the previous Jumu'ah and three additional days are forgiven.

Abu Huraira (may Allah be pleased with him) reports that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: When you have offered the Friday prayer, then perform four rak'ahs. In another narration, it is stated: If you are in a hurry, then perform two rak'ahs in the mosque and two rak'ahs after returning home.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) that when he (Abdullah, may Allah be pleased with him) had finished offering Jumu'ah, he would come home and perform two rak'ahs and would say that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) used to do the same.

‘Umar bin ‘Ata says that Sayyiduna Nafi‘ bin Jubayr sent him to Sayyiduna Sa’ib bin Akht Numayr to ask about the matter which Sayyiduna Mu‘awiyah (may Allah be pleased with him) had noticed in his prayer. (When ‘Umar bin ‘Ata went and asked,) Sa’ib bin Akht Numayr said: Yes! I had performed the Friday prayer with him (Sayyiduna Mu‘awiyah, may Allah be pleased with him) at Maqsura (name of a place). When the Imam finished the prayer with salam, I stood at my place and started praying. Sayyiduna Mu‘awiyah (may Allah be pleased with him) sent for me after entering (the house or a room, etc.), and said: Do not do today what you did again in the future. When you finish the Friday prayer, do not perform another prayer immediately until you have spoken or left that place. Because the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) commanded us this. (He, peace and blessings be upon him, said in this way) that after one prayer, we should not perform another prayer immediately without speaking or leaving that place.

It is narrated from Hakam bin Mina that Abdullah bin Umar and Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with them) told him that they heard the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) say, while he was standing on the wooden pulpit: "People must stop neglecting Jumu'ah, or else Allah will seal their hearts and they will become among the heedless."
