The Ruling on Supplication in the Friday Sermon

Question:
I heard some students of knowledge denouncing the issue of the Friday gathering, and the discussion regarding the radiation in Aden, and he is buying into that. How does one respond to the one who says that?

Answer:
Supplication in the Friday sermon, in the second sermon. This is the practice of the Muslims; the Muslims are upon this practice. The generations are far away, and people are in need of supplication; people are in need of supplication. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) supplicated in the sermon when the Bedouin man entered and complained of the drought and the delay of the rain. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) supplicated in the sermon. Supplication in the sermon is the practice of the Muslims, and it has a basis in the Sunnah of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), especially at this time. People are in need of supplication. The state of the Muslims, as you see, is one of weakness, the dominance of enemies, and corruption, even among the Muslims, there is great corruption: disagreement in beliefs, open sinfulness, and evil sins. So people are in need of supplication. If the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) supplicated for the need of the Muslims for rain in the sermon, then their need now for the rectification of their affairs and the restraint of their enemy is more intense. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) supplicated even in the Fajr prayer and made qunut in times of need. People are in need of supplication, and this is not from us. Allah (Mighty and Majestic) says: "Call upon Me," , and supplication at the end of the sermon is a canopy of response, and the Muslims are present and they affirm this supplication.
