Reciting a complete surah in the first Friday sermon
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. The questioner says: Some Friday preachers recite a complete surah melodiously on the pulpit in the first sermon, then deliver a regular sermon in the second. Is there a sound basis for this?
Answer:
Yes, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) used to recite from a surah, but it is not reported that he would complete it; rather, he would recite a portion of it. He would recite a portion of it in each sermon until he had completed it across his various sermons, just as the female Companion memorized the surah from the Messenger of Allah while he was delivering the sermon. That is, she followed his sermons (peace and blessings be upon him) regarding this surah until she had memorized it in its entirety. Yes.
