Yes, the four rak'ahs before Jumu'ah are proved by Ashar. Here are some of them:

  1. Abu Ubaid narrates that Hazrat Abdullah used to recite four rak'ats before Jumu'ah. (Ibn Abi Shaybah 5402)
  2. Prominent Tabi'i Hazrat Ibrahim Nakhai Rah. He said, "They (the Companions) used to offer four rak'ats of Sunnah prayer before Jumu'ah." (Musannaf Ibn Abi Shaybah 5405)This act of the Companions is sufficient to prove that the four rak'at prayers before Jumu'ah are Sunnah. Because they got this deed from the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him). Besides, the reason for praying four rak'ats before Zuhr has been mentioned in the hadith, that is, the time after sunset is when the gates of heaven are opened. This also applies to Jumu'ah. 7981448969
