Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh:
Peace.

The presenter:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah preserve you, I bear witness that I love you for his sake.

The Shaykh:
Likewise.

The presenter:
Please proceed.

The questioner:
Honorable Shaykh, it is reported from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him)
The virtue of reciting Surat al-Kahf on Fridayفضل قَرَأَ سُورَةَ الْكَهْفِ يَوْمَ الْجُمُعَةِ
Al-Mustadrak lil-Hakim 25:518
But there are in the libraries mushafs containing surahs such as al-Fatihah, al-Kahf, Ya Sin, al-Dukhan, al-Rahman, al-Waqi'ah, and al-Mulk, and it is said that they are among the surahs of Friday. Has anything been reported regarding that, may Allah preserve you?

The Shaykh:
I know of nothing in that regard except for Surat al-Kahf, for which there are reports in the hadiths, though they are weak, regarding the virtue of reciting it on Friday. As for the others, I do not know that they are specified for Friday. Yes.
