Summary
Reciting Surah al-Sajadah in the first rakat and Surah al-Insan in the second rakat of the Friday Fajr prayer is recommended in the Shafii school, based on authentic hadith about the Prophet's practice. The Prophet often did this but not every week. An imam may also recite other surahs, taking into account the congregation behind him, since the prayer should be kept light out of consideration for the weak, the sick and the elderly.
Written in our own words from the original fatwa — check the source before acting on it.
Selain itu juga, menurut mazhab al-Syafie disunatkan membaca surah al-Sajadah dan surah al-Insan pada solat subuh Jumaat berdalilkan amalan Nabi SAW sebagaimana yang dinyatakan di dalam hadith di atas.
