A woman offers salat az zuhr and then joins the congregation for salat al jumu’a

Assalamualaikum

If a woman prays the fard of zuhr on jum’ah day then joins the jum’ah jamat can she intend those two rakahs behind imam as her 2 sunnah after zuhr?

 بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم

الجواب حامدا ومصليا ومسلما

In the aforementioned scenario, the congregation of Jum’ah will be accepted as your fardh salah and the zuhr prayer will become invalidated and considered nafl. Therefore, the Jum’ah prayer prayed behind the imam cannot be considered two sunnahs for Zuhr.

والله اعلم

Allah subhanahu wa ta’ala knows best.
