Ruling on the khatib’s regular recitation of: {Indeed, Allah and His angels send blessings upon the Prophet}

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Is reciting the verse
Indeed, Allah confers blessing upon the Prophet, and His angels [ask Him to do so]إِنَّ اللَّهَ وَمَلَائِكَتَهُ يُصَلُّونَ عَلَى النَّبِيِّ
[Al-Ahzab: 56] in every khutbah a religious innovation? And what about the verse
Indeed, Allah orders justice and good conductإِنَّ اللَّهَ يَأْمُرُ بِالْعَدْلِ وَالْإِحْسَانِ
[An-Nahl: 90], since the khatibs regularly recite these verses?

Answer:
I am not aware of anything wrong with this; because this is an encouragement to send blessings upon the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and a call to send blessings upon the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). The verse is comprehensive:
Indeed, Allah orders justice and good conductإِنَّ اللَّهَ يَأْمُرُ بِالْعَدْلِ وَالْإِحْسَانِ
[An-Nahl: 90], a comprehensive verse containing great good and a reminder for the Muslims, so this is part of the sermon.
