Did the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) recite Surat Qaf in the sermon or in the Friday prayer?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner: O Shaykh, regarding what was narrated from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) by a female Companion—I think—I forgot her name—who said: "I did not memorize Surat Qaf except from the mouth of the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) on a Friday"; does that mean he used to recite it on the pulpit, or did he recite it in the prayer? And did she memorize it from the prayer or from the recitation...?

The Shaykh: No, from the pulpit.

The questioner: Did he preach it as well?

The Shaykh: Yes, from the sermon, yes, indeed.

Another questioner: He would suffice with reciting it.

The Shaykh : Oh?

Another questioner: He would suffice with reciting it?

The Shaykh: No, it is not like that; that is not the specific intent. However, the Messenger (peace be upon him) used to recite it in its entirety. And this is unlikely given what was previously stated about the guidance of the Messenger (peace be upon him) to shorten the sermon. The most apparent understanding from the hadith of this noble woman is that she memorized this surah due to the frequent repetition by the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) of some of its verses in multiple sermons.
