I am neither Sunni nor Shia, nor a madhhabi nor a lamadhahabi, nor an Ahl al-Sunnah wal-Jama'ah, nor an Ahl al-Hadith. I am a servant of Allah and a follower of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) - a Muslim, Alhamdulillah.

We Turks, during the Friday prayer at the mosque, first pray 4 rak'ahs of Sunnah; then the Hoca (the imam) delivers the sermon, followed by the 2-rak'ah Fard prayer with the imam. Afterward, we pray another 4 rak'ahs of Sunnah, followed by Dhikr*; then we raise our hands along with the imam while he prays, and we say "Amin." Is this an innovation (*bid'ah*)? My people say this is how it is done and that I am not allowed to do anything else, because otherwise I would be going down a misguided path—something not good for me as a Turk—and that I must follow my *Madhhab (school of thought). Can someone help me? And what about the noon prayer (*Dhuhr*) in general? We Turks pray 4 rak'ahs of Sunnah, then 4 rak'ahs of *Fard*, followed by 2 rak'ahs of concluding Sunnah.
