[Machine] "I prayed behind the Messenger of Allah ﷺ , as well as behind Abu Bakr, Umar, and Uthman, and they would not audibly recite 'In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful' (Bismillah Ar-Rahman Ar-Raheem) in Surah Al-Fatiha."
صَلَّيْتُ خَلْفَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ وَخَلْفَ أَبِي بَكْرٍ وَعُمَرَ وَعُثْمَانَ فَكَانُوا لَا يَجْهَرُونَ بِ {بِسْمِ اللهِ الرَّحْمَنِ الرَّحِيمِ} [الفاتحة 1]
'Umar b. al-Khattab used to recite loudly these words: Subhanak Allahumma wa bi hamdika wa tabarakasmuka wa ta'ala jadduka wa la ilaha ghairuka [Glory to Thee,0 Allah, and Thine is the Praise, and Blessed is Thy Name. and Exalted is Thy Majesty. and there is no other object of worship beside Thee]. Qatada informed in writing that Anas b. Malik had narrated to him: I observed prayer behind the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and Abu Bakr and Umar and 'Uthman. They started (loud recitation) with: AI-hamdu lillahi Rabb al-'Alamin [All Praise is due to Allah, the Lord of the worlds] and did not recite Bismillah ir- Rahman-ir-Rahim (loudly) at the beginning of the recitation or at the end of it.
أَنَّهُ حَدَّثَهُ قَالَ صَلَّيْتُ خَلْفَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ وَأَبِي بَكْرٍ وَعُمَرَ وَعُثْمَانَ فَكَانُوا يَسْتَفْتِحُونَ بِ { الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ رَبِّ الْعَالَمِينَ} لاَ يَذْكُرُونَ بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَنِ الرَّحِيمِ فِي أَوَّلِ قِرَاءَةٍ وَلاَ فِي آخِرِهَا
"I prayed behind the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, Abu Bakr, Umar and Uthman, may Allah be pleased with them, and I did not hear any of them say out loud: In the Name of Allah, The Most Gracious, The Most Merciful."
صَلَّيْتُ خَلْفَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ وَأَبِي بَكْرٍ وَعُمَرَ وَعُثْمَانَ ؓ فَلَمْ أَسْمَعْ أَحَدًا مِنْهُمْ يَجْهَرُ بِ { بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَنِ الرَّحِيمِ }
Yahya related to me from Malik from Humayd at-Tawil that Anas ibn Malik said, "I stood behind Abu Bakr and Umar and Uthman and none of them used to recite 'In the name of Allah, the Merciful, the Compassionate' when they began the prayer."
قُمْتُ وَرَاءَ أَبِي بَكْرٍ وَعُمَرَ وَعُثْمَانَ فَكُلُّهُمْ كَانَ لاَ يَقْرَأُ {بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَنِ الرَّحِيمِ} إِذَا افْتَتَحَ الصَّلاَةَ
[Machine] I prayed behind the Messenger of Allah ﷺ , Abu Bakr, Umar, and Uthman, and they would begin by reciting "Alhamdulillahi Rabbil 'Alamin" (Praise be to Allah, the Lord of all the worlds) [Surah Al-Fatiha: 2], without mentioning "Bismillahir Rahmanir Raheem" (In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful) [Surah Al-Fatiha: 1] in the beginning or at the end of the recitation.
صَلَّيْتُ خَلْفَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ وَأَبِي بَكْرٍ وَعُمَرَ وَعُثْمَانَ فَكَانُوا يَسْتَفْتِحُونَ بِ {الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ رَبِّ الْعَالَمِينَ} [الفاتحة 2] لَا يَذْكُرُونَ {بِسْمِ اللهِ الرَّحْمَنِ الرَّحِيمِ} [الفاتحة 1] فِي أَوَّلِ الْقِرَاءَةِ وَلَا فِي آخِرِهَا
[Machine] I prayed with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ , Abu Bakr, and Umar, and they did not recite aloud "Bismillah ir-Rahman ir-Rahim" (In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful) [Al-Fatihah 1].
صَلَّيْتُ مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ وَمَعَ أَبِي بَكْرٍ وَمَعَ عُمَرَ فَلَمْ يَجْهَرُوا بِ {بِسْمِ اللهِ الرَّحْمَنِ الرَّحِيمِ} [الفاتحة 1]
I observed prayer along with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and with Abu Bakr, Umar and Uthman (may Allah be pleased with all of them), but I never heard any one of them reciting Bismillah-ir-Rahman-ir-Rahim loudly. (Using translation from Muslim 399a)
صَلَّيْتُ مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ وَأَبِي بَكْرٍ وَعُمَرَ وَعُثْمَانَ فَلَمْ أَسْمَعْ أَحَدًا مِنْهُمْ يَقُولُ {بِسْمِ اللهِ الرَّحْمَنِ الرَّحِيمِ} [الفاتحة 1]
[Machine] "I prayed behind the Messenger of Allah ﷺ , and behind Abu Bakr, Umar, and Uthman. They would not recite aloud the Bismillahir Rahmanir Rahim (In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful) in Al-Fatiha (Chapter 1)."
صَلَّيْتُ خَلْفَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ وَخَلْفَ أَبِي بَكْرٍ وَعُمَرَ وَعُثْمَانَ فَكَانُوا لَا يَجْهَرُونَ بِ {بِسْمِ اللهِ الرَّحْمَنِ الرَّحِيمِ} [الفاتحة 1]
[Machine] "I prayed behind the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and behind Abu Bakr, Umar, and Uthman, and they did not initiate the recitation with 'Bismillah ar-Rahman ar-Rahim' (In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful) in Surah Al-Fatiha (Chapter 1). Shu'bah said: I asked Qatadah, 'Did you hear this from Anas?' He replied, 'Yes, we asked him about it.'"
صَلَّيْتُ خَلْفَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ وَخَلْفَ أَبِي بَكْرٍ وَعُمَرَ وَعُثْمَانَ فَلَمْ يَكُونُوا يَسْتَفْتِحُونَ الْقِرَاءَةَ بِ {بِسْمِ اللهِ الرَّحْمَنِ الرَّحِيمِ} [الفاتحة 1] قَالَ شُعْبَةُ فَقُلْتُ لِقَتَادَةَ أَسَمِعْتَهُ مِنْ أَنَسٍ؟ قَالَ نَعَمْ نَحْنُ سَأَلْنَاهُ عَنْهُ
"I prayed behind the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, Abu Bakr, Umar and Uthman, may Allah be pleased with them, and I did not hear any of them say out loud: In the Name of Allah, The Most Gracious, The Most Merciful." (Using translation from Nasāʾī 907)
«صَلَّيْتُ خَلْفَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ وَأَبِي بَكْرٍ وَعُمَرَ وَعُثْمَانَ رِضْوَانُ اللَّهِ عَلَيْهِمْ فَلَمْ أَسْمَعْ أَحَدًا يَجْهَرْ بِبِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَنِ الرَّحِيمِ»
[Machine] "And the Messenger of Allah ﷺ , Abu Bakr, and Umar, may Allah be pleased with them, did not utter aloud 'In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.'"
«وَكَانَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ وَأَبُو بَكْرٍ وَعُمَرُ رِضْوَانُ اللَّهِ عَلَيْهِمَا لَا يَجْهَرُونَ بِ {بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَنِ الرَّحِيمِ} »
"I prayed behind the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, Abu Bakr, Umar and Uthman, may Allah be pleased with them, and I did not hear any of them say out loud: In the Name of Allah, The Most Gracious, The Most Merciful." (Using translation from Nasāʾī 907)
«صَلَّيْتُ خَلْفَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ وَأَبِي بَكْرٍ وَعُمَرَ وَعُثْمَانَ فَلَمْ أَسْمَعْ أَحَدًا مِنْهُمْ يَجْهَرُ بِبِسْمِ اللهِ الرَّحْمَنِ الرَّحِيمِ»
[Machine] I prayed behind Umar ibn al-Khattab, and he recited aloud "In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful."
صَلَّيْتُ خَلْفَ عُمَرَ بْنِ الْخَطَّابِ فَجَهَرَ بِبِسْمِ اللهِ الرَّحْمَنِ الرَّحِيمِ
"صليتُ خلفَ النبىِّ ﷺ ، وأبِى بكرٍ، وعمرَ، وعثمانَ فلم يجهرْ ببِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَنِ الرَّحِيمِ".
