The Messenger of Allah (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) used to recite certain surahs in some of the prayers, in most cases. He did this for various reasons, one of which may have been that the verses were appropriate to the time when they were recited. In this hadith, Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that in Fajr prayer on Fridays, the Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) used to recite Surat al-Sajdah in the first rak‘ah and Surat al-Insan in the second rak‘ah. This is what he (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) usually did most of the time. That was because of what these two surahs contain of mention of what has happened and what will happen, from creation until re-creation (resurrection), such as the creation of Adam (peace be upon him), the gathering of all creatures, their resurrection from the graves to either Paradise or Hell, the stages of the Day of Resurrection, and the fact that it will happen on a Friday. Reciting these two surahs in Fajr prayer on Friday is following the example of the Messenger of Allah (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him). It was said that this is on condition that one recite other surahs sometimes, lest anyone think that it is not permissible to recite any other surahs [in Fajr prayer on Fridays]..
