Assalamoalikum

Answer :

In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.

As-salāmu ‘alaykum wa-rahmatullāhi wa-barakātuh.

Dear Brother,

In principle, if the khutbah of Jumu’ah and ‘eed is delivered in any language other than Arabic it will be Makruh-Tahrimi, however the khutbah will be valid.

You may refer to Fatwa #35234 and 19080.

And Allah Ta’āla Knows Best
