Allowing a person who is not a haafidh or aalim to give the jumuah khutbah
Question
If s person is not a Haafidh or Aalim, can he read the jummah khutbah (he done alot of juz and can read Arabic).
Answer
It is best that someone who knows deen gives the pre-jumuah bayaan. If the non-hafiz is acquainted with the laws of the khutbah and salaah then he could do it.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
