The ruling on reciting the verse of justice and excellence in the sermon

Question:
And regarding the Shaykh’s view, is reviving the shortening of the sermon by reciting the verse not an innovation?

Answer:
No, reciting the Qur'an is not an innovation. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) used to recite the Qur'an in the sermon, so how can we say that it is? These two verses contain great meanings, and Muslims have continued to recite them in recent times because of the great meanings they contain. It is said that the first to recite them was 'Umar ibn 'Abd al-'Aziz (may Allah have mercy on him). In any case, saying that this is an innovation is an exaggeration. We know that reciting the Qur'an is a recommended practice (sunnah), and that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) used to recite some of the Qur'an. And in the hadith So this is not riba (usury or interest); this is a partnership. Yes.
There is no objection, if Allah wills. There is no harm in that. It is better to conclude it with something that benefits the people, such as saying, "I say what you hear, and I do not know how..." What did the people benefit from if I said, "I say what you hear"? They are hearing it. Following what the Salaf and the people of knowledge did is what is more appropriate and better. Yes.
