Question:
May Allah reward you, Your Eminence, father. The questioner says: It is established in the hadith that the Prophet
the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) used to reciteصلى الله عليه وسلم كان يقرأ سورة في
Sahih Muslim 458b
the sermon. Did he recite the surah without interpretation, meaning merely by reciting the verses, or did he divide it between the two sermons?

Answer:
The Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) confined himself to recitation, and the recitation is the interpretation of his recitation (peace and blessings be upon him), because he recited with clarity and a recitation that indicated the meaning upon him (peace and blessings be upon him). He did not recite the surah in full in one go, but rather he distributed it over the days. He would recite a portion of it on Friday, a portion on the second Friday, and a portion on the third, until he completed it. He did not recite it in full. Yes.
