The imam reading from the mushaf for the Fajr prayer on Friday if he does not memorize the two surahs

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: What is the ruling for one who does not memorize Surat al-Sajdah and Surat al-Insan, and he is an imam? Is it permissible for him to read from the Qur'an by looking at it?

Answer:
How can he be an imam if he does not memorize Surat al-Sajdah and Surat al-Insan? It is supposed that those who appoint him ask him what he has memorized from the Qur'an? And they explain to him what is read on Friday and what is read for the Fajr prayer on Friday, so that he acts according to the Sunnah. Yes.
