Is it permissible for one person to give the Jumu’ah khutbah and another to lead the prayers?

Is it permissible for someone to give the khutba and someone else to
lead the salaat on friday, this happens at mymosque during ramadan
where a shaikh was askedto give the khutba but fora hafiz/quran who
was present to lead the salaat,is this correct because the shaikh said
this is not of the sunnah,
Jazakhalla Khairan
Praise be to Allaah.
Imaam Ibn Qudaamah (may Allaah have mercy on him) said: "Section:
theSunnah is for the same person to lead the prayersas gave the
khutbah, because the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon
him) used to do both himself, as did his successors (the khulafa').
But if one man gives the khutbah and another leads the prayer for a
valid reason, this is permissible. This is what Ahmad stated…because
if it is permissible for someone else to take overleading the prayer
for a valid reason, then this applies even more so in the case of the
khutbah with the prayer. If there isno reason, then Ahmad (may Allaah
have mercy on him) said: 'I do not likeit if there is no excuse.' The
reason why it is not liked may be because the Prophet (peace and
blessings of Allaah be upon him) used to do both of them, and he
said,'Pray as you have seen mepraying' (Reported by al-Bukhaari and
Ahmad), and because the khutbah takes the place of two rak'ahs. The
reason why itis permissible may be because the khutbah is separate
from the prayer, as if it is two prayers." (al-Mughni, part 2, Kitaab
al-Jumu'ah: Fasl: yatawallaa al-salaah man yatawallaa al-khutbah. See
also: al-Badaa'i', 1/262, al-Sharh al-Kabeer, 1/499).
The fact that the one wholeads the prayer knows more Qur'aan than the
khateeb is not a reason for going against the Sunnah of the khateeb
also being the imaam for the prayers. The khateeb should lead the
people in prayer and recite whatever he can of Qur'aan, even if there
are people behind him who know more than he does. And Allaah knows
best.
