Reciting Surat al-Nahl in its entirety in the Friday sermon

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. Regarding 'Umar ibn al-Khattab (may Allah be pleased with him) reciting Surat al-Nahl in the Friday sermon, did he recite it in its entirety?

The Shaykh:
Or, as it appears, no. He recited from it; he recited from it but did not recite it in its entirety. Yes.

The questioner:
And is it said that it is prescribed to recite it, like the recitation of Surat Qaf?

The Shaykh:
He recited from it, and Surat Qaf is not recited in its entirety; he recited from it. Yes.
