Is it established from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) to recite the two surahs of al-Ikhlas in the rawatib of Maghrib?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : Shaykh, may Allah forgive you, is it established to recite Surah al-Ikhlas in the rawatib of the Maghrib prayer?

The Shaykh : It is established, but it is reported from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) that he recited in the rawatib of Maghrib
Say: O you disbelievers! قُلْ يَا أَيُّهَا الْكَافِرُونَ
and
Say, "He is Allah, [who is] One, قُلْ هُوَ اللَّهُ أَحَدٌ
[Al-Ikhlas 112:1]
. So if one recites them, that is better, because if the hadith is established, it is established, and if it is not established, its counterpart is the Fajr rawatib, in which one recites
Say: O you disbelievers! قُلْ يَا أَيُّهَا الْكَافِرُونَ
and
Say, "He is Allah, [who is] One, قُلْ هُوَ اللَّهُ أَحَدٌ
[Al-Ikhlas 112:1]
.
Yes, indeed, because a person hopes for reward. If it is authentic, that is what is sought, and if it is not authentic, there is no blame on him.
