Matching the recitation in the Friday prayer to the topic of the sermon
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
A questioner says: The imam of the mosque in our neighborhood reads the verses that match the topic of the Friday sermon in the first and second rak'ahs. Is there any evidence for this?
Answer:
There is no evidence that the recitation in the Friday prayer should match the topic of the sermon. This is merely the independent reasoning (ijtihad) of some contemporary scholars, and this was not known from the righteous predecessors (Salaf). What is recited in the Friday prayer is either Surah al-Sajdah and Surah al-Hashr, or Surah al-Jumu'ah and Surah al-Munafiqun. Yes.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you
