Is there a report in the Sunnah of reciting Surat al-Sajdah in the two rak'ahs of the Fajr prayer on Friday?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He asks: Is it established in the Sunnah to recite Surat al-Sajdah in two rak'ahs, specifically in the Fajr prayer on Friday?

Answer:
This is contrary to the Sunnah. Dividing it into two rak'ahs is contrary to the Sunnah, and this is what the lazy people do. The Sunnah is that you recite Surat al-Sajdah in its entirety in the first rak'ah, and you recite Surat al-Insan in its entirety in the second rak'ah. As for the lazy people, either they do not recite them, or they divide them. This is deficient; it is a deficient act that is contrary to the Sunnah.
