THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN FRIDAY SALAT AND "AL-SALAT AL-WUSTHA".
In my view, Friday salat essentially corresponds to "Al-Salat Al-Wustha," but it is performed in a special congregational form on a day called Friday
My analysis:
(1) There are three daily salat mentioned in the Quran, namely Fajr, Al-Wustha, and Isha
Their respective timeframe ...
Salat Fajr begins when Fajr appears and ends at sunrise
Salat Al-Wustha begins when the sun starts to decline from its highest point in the sky which is at noon and ends at sunset
Salat Isha begins as soon as the sun has set and ends when all light has disappeared from the night sky

(2) The number of three daily salat should be preserved (4:103), even if a new name for salat is introduced in the Quran
Therefore, we need to determine which of these three salats is most compatible with the Friday salat mentioned in verses 62:9-11
I believe the best choice is "Al-Salat Al-Wustha," based on the following factors ...
It has the longest time span
Its timeframe is more convenient for mu'min
The essence of verses 62:9-11 aligns closely with "Al-Salat Al-Wustha"
Just my perspective
Thank you.
