Reciting al-Kafirun and al-Ikhlas in the Rawatib of Maghrib

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. The questioner says: Regarding the rawatib (regular voluntary prayers) after the Maghrib prayer, is there a report that one should recite
Say, "O disbelievers,قُلْ يَا أَيُّهَا الْكَافِرُونَ
[Al-Kafirun 109:1]
and
Say, "He is Allah, [who is] One,قُلْ هُوَ اللَّهُ أَحَدٌ
[Al-Ikhlas 112:1]
in them?

Answer:
Yes, such as the two rak'ahs of Fajr. These two surahs were singled out because they deal with tawhid (the oneness of Allah); the first is about tawhid al-uluhiyyah (oneness of worship)
I do not worship what you worship.لَا أَعْبُدُ مَا تَعْبُدُونَ
[Al-Kafirun 109:2]
and the second is about tawhid al-rububiyyah (oneness of lordship)
Say, "He is Allah, [who is] One,قُلْ هُوَ اللَّهُ أَحَدٌ
[Al-Ikhlas 112:1]
in the names and attributes. Yes.
