Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, does the imam who does not recite Surah al-Sajdah and Surah al-Insan in the Fajr prayer on Friday, citing the excuse of making it easier for the congregation, have the right to do so?
Answer:
As I mentioned to you, the lengthening involved in reciting Surah al-Sajdah and Surah al-Insan is a type of lengthening like reciting Surah al-Iman. One might recite Surah al-Sajdah in full and they do not feel bored, or one might recite part of the surah and they wish he would just finish. This depends on the imam’s recitation and its nature. Yes.
