Is it valid to recite verses in the Friday prayer that correspond to what was mentioned in the Friday sermon?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
What is your opinion, Honorable Shaykh, on reciting verses in the Friday prayer that correspond to what was mentioned in the Friday sermon?

Answer:
No, there is no evidence for this. The Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him), his Companions, and the scholars who came before them did not make the verses in the prayer correspond to the topic of the sermon. No one did this. What is recommended (sunnah) to recite in the prayer is Surah al-Sabbah and Surah al-Ghashiyah, or Surah al-Jumu'ah and Surah al-Munafiqun. This is what is transmitted and is the Sunnah. Yes.
