The ruling on saying "Indeed, all praise is for Allah" at the beginning of the sermon

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you, Honorable Shaykh. This questioner says: We often hear Friday preachers begin their sermons by saying, "Indeed, all praise is for Allah." Is this contrary to what is best? And what is correct: to say "All praise is for Allah" or to say "Indeed, all praise is for Allah"?

Answer:
And Allah, the wording that came in the Qur'an is "All praise is for Allah," and all the sermons of the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) were "All praise is for Allah," except the Sermon of Necessity, the sermon of Ibn Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him), which was "Indeed, all praise is for Allah." As for what is in the Qur'an and what is in the sermons of the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him), it is well known that it is "All praise is for Allah," a nominal sentence: "All praise is for Allah." Yes.

The presenter:
May Allah reward you
