Answer
In the name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful
Assalaamu `alaykum waRahmatullahi Wabarakatoh
The four rakats before zohar salah is sunnate-muakkadah. It is a sin to leave out those sunnats. It is advisable for one to perform his sunnats at home. It is possible the Imam of your musjid is practicing on sunnah.
And Allah knows best

Which sunnah salaah are emphasised (muakkadah)?
“Sunnah Salaah should not be unduly missed during a journey. However, if the Musaafir is in a hurry then, apart from the Sunnah of Fajr, it will be permissible for him to omit the other Sunnah Salaahs.”
