The ruling on reciting Surah al-Sajdah and Surah al-Insan in the Fajr prayer on Friday

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: What is the rule for reciting Surah al-Sajdah,
And has there not come to manوهل أتى على الإنسان
, on the night of Friday or in the Fajr prayer on Friday? Does one recite it every Friday?

Answer:
Yes, one recites Surah al-Sajdah in the first rak'ah, and Surah al-Insan in the second rak'ah, reciting both in their entirety. This is the sunnah (recommended practice). The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) used to recite these two surahs in the Fajr prayer on Friday. He did not recite only part of one and part of the other; rather, he recited both in their entirety. This is the sunnah, and this is what is reported from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). However, he did not make it a constant habit; rather, he would sometimes leave them out to let people know that reciting them is not obligatory. Yes.
