Jama Masjid (prayer times on Friday?)

Hello there,

my fellow students and me are planning to visit Jama Masjid in Delhi on Friday in April (yes I know not the best time to visit India). From what I've read elsewhere visiting the Mosque on Friday is not a problem as long as you don't arrive during prayer times. Is this true? And does anyone know when these times are? We were currently planning to visit the Mosque between 14:00 and 15:00. Is this possible?

Thnx in advance for an answer!
