Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you. This questioner says: The imam of our mosque recites Surah al-Sajdah in the first rak'ah and Surah al-Insan in the second rak'ah of the Fajr prayer every Friday. What is the ruling on continuing to do this throughout the year?
Answer:
It is not recommended to continue doing this every Friday throughout the year, because the common people think it is obligatory, whereas it is not obligatory. Rather, he should omit it at times and recite other surahs at times, so that people know that reciting these two surahs is not obligatory in every Friday prayer. Yes.
