Question:
The conditions of the sermon?
Answer:
It must include praising Allah, extolling Allah, the two testimonies, and admonishing and reminding the people. Some scholars made it a condition to send blessings upon the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), and some made it a condition to recite a verse. One should do this: one should praise Allah and extol Him, testify to the two testimonies, send blessings upon the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), and admonish and remind the people.
The purpose is to admonish the people, remind them, teach them, direct them to good, and warn them against evil. If one recites a verse during the sermon, or verses, this is what should be done, because he (peace and blessings be upon him) used to recite verses in the sermon. However, they differed: is this a condition or not? Some made it a condition, and some said it is not a condition, but it is prescribed to recite some verses. So if one recites a verse, two verses, or more, because this is more certain to avoid the disagreement of those who said its validity is not established without it.
Q: The praise and extolling in the two sermons?
