Adding the Phrase RADI. to the Names of the Sahabah RADI. in the Jumu'ah Khutbah

Q: Salaah-741: When the Imaam recites the Khutbah on the day of Jumu'ah, he also recites the Hadith ...... He then proceeds to say the names of several Sahabah RADI. and adds the phrase RADI. after each one of them. An Aalim has mentioned that it is only the names of the Sahabah RADI. that needs to be mentioned because Rasulullaah SAW. did not use the phrase RADI. when he took their names. He therefore asserts that adding this phrase entails adding to the Hadith of Rasulullaah SAW. Please guide us in the matter. Should the phrase be added or not?

Answer: The practice of adding the phrases RADI ALLAAHU ANHU or? RADI ALLAAHU ANHUM AJMAEEN. after the names of the Khulafaa Raashideen and other Sahabah RADI. is permissible without doubt. This is a token respect and proper etiquette and is 'Mustahab. Adding the phrase does not entail adding to the Ahadeeth.
