Reading Surat al-Sajdah and "Has There Come" in the Fajr Prayer on Friday

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Shaykh, regarding the imam on Friday night: does he read Surat al-Sajdah and "Has There Come" for the congregation every Friday, or from time to time?

Answer:
This is a Prophetic sunnah (recommended practice) that has now been abandoned, or nearly so, by many of the imams (may Allah guide them) due to laziness. Otherwise, the sunnah in the Fajr prayer on Friday is to recite Surah al-Sajdah and "Has there come over man." Yes.
