Did it come from the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) that he would begin the festival sermon with the takbir?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : All right, did it come from the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) that he would begin the festival sermon with "Allahu Akbar, Allahu Akbar, Allahu Akbar"?
The Shaykh: No.
The questioner : It did not come, meaning, what most preachers do these days?
The Shaykh : It has no basis. However, I point out that it is reported, and I cannot say it is not reported; it is reported, but it is not authentic that he would place the takbir during the sermon, reciting the takbir during the sermon. This is found in Sunan Ibn Majah, but the chain is weak and not authentic. As for the opening, there is no difference between the festival sermon and the Friday sermon.
The questioner : Because al-Sayyid Sabiq mentioned, "It is recommended that the preacher begin with the takbir."
The Shaykh : It has no basis.
The Shaykh: No.
