[Machine] Narrated from the Prophet ﷺ that he prayed while the person behind him was reciting. One of the companions of the Prophet ﷺ then prohibited him from reciting in prayer. When the Prophet ﷺ finished, the man approached him and said, "Are you forbidding me from reciting behind the Messenger of Allah ﷺ ?" A dispute arose between them until the man mentioned it to the Prophet ﷺ . The Prophet ﷺ said, "Whoever prays behind the imam, the recitation of the imam is sufficient for him like this."  

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ أَنَّهُ صَلَّى وَكَانَ مَنْ خَلْفَهُ يَقْرَأُ فَجَعَلَ رَجُلٌ مِنْ أَصْحَابِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ يَنْهَاهُ عَنِ الْقِرَاءَةِ فِي الصَّلَاةِ فَلَمَّا انْصَرَفَ أَقْبَلَ عَلَيْهِ الرَّجُلُ فَقَالَ أَتَنْهَانِي عَنِ الْقِرَاءَةِ خَلْفَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ ‍ فَتَنَازَعَا حَتَّى ذَكَرَ ذَلِكَ لِلنَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ مَنْ صَلَّى خَلْفَ الْإِمَامِ فَإِنَّ قِرَاءَةَ الْإِمَامِ لَهُ قِرَاءَةٌ هَكَذَا  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Whoever has an imam, then the recitation of the imam is also recitation for him."  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ مَنْ كَانَ لَهُ إِمَامٌ فَإِنَّ قِرَاءَةَ الْإِمَامِ لَهُ قِرَاءَةٌ وَكَذَلِكَ  

[Machine] The Prophet Muhammad ﷺ said, "Whoever has an imam, the recitation of the imam is the recitation for him. Jabir al-Ju'fi and Layth ibn Abi Sulaym are not to be referred to (as imams), and anyone who follows them in this matter is less knowledgeable than them or one of them. And what is preserved from Jabir in this matter is..."  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ مَنْ كَانَ لَهُ إِمَامٌ فَقِرَاءَةُ الْإِمَامِ لَهُ قِرَاءَةٌ جَابِرٌ الْجُعْفِيُّ وَلَيْثُ بْنُ أَبِي سُلَيْمٍ لَا يُحْتَجُّ بِهِمَا وَكُلُّ مَنْ تَابَعَهُمَا عَلَى ذَلِكَ أَضْعَفُ مِنْهُمَا أَوْ مِنْ أَحَدِهِمَا وَالْمَحْفُوظُ عَنْ جَابِرٍ فِي هَذَا الْبَابِ  

[Machine] From Malik and that is not permissible to cite as evidence. It is possible that the opinion of Jabir in that matter is to leave behind the recitation behind the imam in what he recites out loud, without what he recites silently. Yazid al-Faqir narrated from Jabir that he said, "We used to recite aloud in Dhuhr and Asr prayers behind the imam in the first two units with the opening chapter of the book and a chapter, and in the last two units with the opening chapter of the book." It is also possible that it is the opinion of Ibn Mas'ud.  

عَنْ مَالِكٍ وَذَاكَ مِمَّا لَا يَحِلُّ رِوَايَتُهُ عَلَى طَرِيقِ الِاحْتِجَاجِ بِهِ وَقَدْ يُشْبِهُ أَنْ يَكُونَ مَذْهَبُ جَابِرٍ فِي ذَلِكَ تَرْكَ الْقِرَاءَةِ خَلْفَ الْإِمَامِ فِيمَا يَجْهَرُ فِيهِ بِالْقِرَاءَةِ دُونَ مَا لَا يَجْهَرُ فَقَدْ رَوَى يَزِيدٌ الْفَقِيرُ عَنْ جَابِرٍ قَالَ كُنَّا نَقْرَأُ فِي الظُّهْرِ وَالْعَصْرِ خَلْفَ الْإِمَامِ فِي الرَّكْعَتَيْنِ الْأُولَيَيْنِ بِفَاتِحَةِ الْكِتَابِ وَسُورَةٍ وَفِي الْأُخْرَيَيْنِ بِفَاتِحَةِ الْكِتَابِ وَكَذَلِكَ يُشْبِهُ أَنْ يَكُونَ مَذْهَبَ ابْنِ مَسْعُودٍ  

[Machine] Listen to the Quran, for in prayer there is occupation. That imam will suffice you. It is only said to listen to the Quran for what is heard, not what is not heard. Alqamah said, "I prayed beside Abdullah and I did not know that he was reciting until he recited this verse aloud: 'And say, "My Lord, increase me in knowledge."' And we have narrated from Abdullah bin Ziyad al-Asadi that he said, "I prayed beside Abdullah bin Mas'ood behind the imam, and I heard him reciting during Dhuhr and Asr."  

أَنْصِتْ لِلْقُرْآنِ فَإِنَّ فِي الصَّلَاةِ شُغُلًا وَسَيَكْفِيكَ ذَاكَ الْإِمَامُ وَإِنَّمَا يُقَالُ أَنْصِتْ لِلْقُرْآنِ لِمَا يُسْمَعُ لَا مَا لَا يُسْمَعُ وَقَدْ قَالَ عَلْقَمَةُ صَلَّيْتُ إِلَى جَنْبِ عَبْدِ اللهِ فَلَمْ أَعْلَمْ أَنَّهُ يَقْرَأُ حَتَّى جَهَرَ بِهَذِهِ الْآيَةِ {وَقُلْ رَبِّي زِدْنِي عِلْمًا} وَرُوِّينَا عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ زِيَادٍ الْأَسَدِيِّ أَنَّهُ قَالَ صَلَّيْتُ إِلَى جَنْبِ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ مَسْعُودٍ خَلْفَ الْإِمَامِ فَسَمِعْتُهُ يَقْرَأُ فِي الظُّهْرِ وَالْعَصْرِ  

[Machine] "He used to say that whoever prays behind the imam, it is sufficient for him to recite the imam's recitation. This is the correct statement of Ibn Umar, or the meaning of it."  

أَنَّهُ كَانَ يَقُولُ مَنْ صَلَّى وَرَاءَ الْإِمَامِ كَفَاهُ قِرَاءَةُ الْإِمَامِ هَذَا هُوَ الصَّحِيحُ عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ مِنْ قَوْلِهِ وَبِمَعْنَاهُ  

[Machine] To Ibn Umar, "O Abu Abdullah, do you recite in every prayer?" He replied, "Indeed, I feel shy before my Lord in this prayer structure to bow for two units of prayer without reciting in them a portion from the mother of the Quran, as an addition or elevation." Yaqub said, "And Amr ibn Asim narrated to us, who narrated from Sulaiman ibn al-Mughirah, who narrated from Sa'id al-Jurayri, who narrated from Abu al-Azhar, similar to that, as if he used to see the recitation behind the imam while the imam was reciting it secretly. Malik ibn Anas approved of this narration, although it has been narrated from him differently."  

لِابْنِ عُمَرَ يَا أَبَا عَبْدَ الرَّحْمَنِ أَفِي كُلِّ صَلَاةٍ تَقْرَأُ؟ قَالَ إِنِّي لَأَسْتَحْيِي مِنْ رَبِّ هَذِهِ الْبِنْيَةِ أَنْ أَرْكَعَ رَكْعَتَيْنِ لَا أَقْرَأُ فِيهِمَا بِأُمِّ الْقُرْآنِ فَزَائِدًا أَوْ قَالَ فَصَاعِدًا قَالَ يَعْقُوبُ وَحَدَّثَنَا عَمْرُو بْنُ عَاصِمٍ ثنا سُلَيْمَانُ بْنُ الْمُغِيرَةِ ثنا سَعِيدٌ الْجُرَيْرِيُّ ثنا أَبُو الْأَزْهَرِ عَنْ أَبِي الْعَالِيَةِ الْبَرَّاءِ نَحْوَهُ فَكَأَنَّهُ كَانَ يَرَى الْقِرَاءَةَ خَلْفَ الْإِمَامِ فِيمَا يُسِرُّ الْإِمَامُ فِيهِ بِالْقِرَاءَةِ وَعَلَى ذَلِكَ وَضَعَهُ مَالِكُ بْنُ أَنَسٍ وَقَدْ رُوِيَ عَنْهُ بِخِلَافِهِ  

[Machine] Ibn Umar did not recite behind the imam aloud or silently, and there were certain men who used to recite behind the imam in a specific manner.  

كَانَ ابْنُ عُمَرَ لَا يَقْرَأُ خَلْفَ الْإِمَامِ جَهَرَ أَوْ لَمْ يَجْهَرْ وَكَانَ رِجَالٌ أَئِمَّةٌ يَقْرَءُونَ وَرَاءَ الْإِمَامِ كَذَا  

[Machine] If you read, then some people have read, among whom there were examples to follow and taking their advice. And if you leave, then some people have left, among whom there were examples to follow. Ibn Umar said, "he does not read."  

إِنْ قَرَأْتَ فَقَدْ قَرَأَ قَوْمٌ كَانَ فِيهِمْ أُسْوَةٌ وَالْأَخْذُ بِأَمْرِهِمْ وَإِنْ تَرَكْتَ فَقَدْ تَرَكَ قَوْمٌ كَانَ فِيهِمْ أُسْوَةٌ قَالَ وَكَانَ ابْنُ عُمَرَ لَا يَقْرَأُ  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ used to lead the people in prayer and a man would recite behind him. When the Messenger of Allah ﷺ finished, he asked, "Who is the one who recited my Sura?" He forbade reading behind the Imam. Ibn Saad reported that some people were astonished and said that Hajjaj had a unique version of his narration.  

كَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ يُصَلِّي بِالنَّاسِ وَرَجُلٌ يَقْرَأُ خَلْفَهُ فَلَمَّا فَرَغَ قَالَ مَنْ ذَا الَّذِي يُخَالِجُنِي سُورَتِي؟ فَنَهَى عَنِ الْقِرَاءَةِ خَلْفَ الْإِمَامِ قَالَ ابْنُ صَاعِدٍ قَوْلَهُ فَنَهَى عَنِ الْقِرَاءَةِ خَلْفَ الْإِمَامِ تَفَرَّدَ بِرِوَايَتِهِ حَجَّاجٌ وَقَدْ  

[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ was praying Dhuhr when a man came and recited behind him, "Glorify the name of your Lord, the Most High" (Surah Al-A'la, verse 1). After finishing, the Prophet ﷺ asked, "Who was the reciter?" The man replied, "I am." The Prophet ﷺ then said, "I thought that someone other than you had joined me in reciting it."  

أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ صَلَّى يَوْمًا الظُّهْرَ فَجَاءَ رَجُلٌ فَقَرَأَ خَلْفَهُ {سَبِّحِ اسْمَ رَبِّكَ الْأَعْلَى} [الأعلى 1] فَلَمَّا فَرَغَ قَالَ أَيُّكُمُ الْقَارِئُ؟ قَالَ أَنَا قَالَ قَدْ ظَنَنْتُ أَنَّ بَعْضَكُمْ خَالَجَنِيهَا  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said to him, "O Ibn Hudhaifah, do not listen to me and listen to Allah."  

لَهُ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ يَا ابْنَ حُذَافَةَ لَا تُسْمِعْنِي وَأَسْمِعِ اللهَ ﷻ  

[Machine] I heard Abu Darda say, he was asked: "Is there recitation in every prayer, O Messenger of Allah?" He said: "Yes." Then, a man from the Ansar said: "This is necessary." So, the Messenger of Allah said to me while I was closest to him: "I do not see the Imam when he leads the people in prayer except that he suffices them like this."  

سَمِعْتُ أَبَا الدَّرْدَاءِ يَقُولُ سُئِلَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ أَفِي كُلِّ صَلَاةٍ قِرَاءَةٌ؟ قَالَ نَعَمْ فَقَالَ رَجُلٌ مِنَ الْأَنْصَارِ وَجَبَتْ هَذِهِ فَقَالَ لِي رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ وَكُنْتُ أَقْرَبَ الْقَوْمِ إِلَيْهِ مَا أَرَى الْإِمَامَ إِذَا أَمَّ الْقَوْمَ إِلَّا قَدْ كَفَاهُمْ كَذَا  

[Machine] O Messenger of Allah, is there Qur'an recited in every prayer? He said, "Yes." Then a man from the people said, "So this is obligatory?" Abu Darda' said, "O excessive one, when I stand beside him, I do not see the Imam when he leads the people in prayer and completes it." Ali said, "The correct view is that it is the saying of Abu Darda', as Ibn Wahb said, and Zaid bin Al-Hubab thought it was the saying of Abu Darda'. The Sheikh (Al-Muzani) narrated it, as did Zaid."  

يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ أَفِي كُلِّ صَلَاةٍ قُرْآنٌ؟ قَالَ نَعَمْ فَقَالَ رَجُلٌ مِنَ الْقَوْمِ وَجَبَ هَذَا فَقَالَ أَبُو الدَّرْدَاءِ يَا كَثِيرُ وَأَنَا إِلَى جَنْبِهِ لَا أَرَى الْإِمَامَ إِذَا أَمَّ الْقَوْمَ أَنْ قَدْ كَفَاهُمْ قَالَ عَلِيٌّ الصَّوَابُ إِنَّهُ مِنْ قَوْلِ أَبِي الدَّرْدَاءِ كَمَا قَالَ ابْنُ وَهْبٍ وَهِمَ فِيهِ زَيْدُ بْنُ الْحُبَابُ قَالَ الشَّيْخُ وَقَدْ رَوَى زَيْدٌ كَمَا  

[Machine] From Yahya ibn Yahya while being carried aloud in recitation along with the Imam, and Allah knows best.  

عَنْ يَحْيَى بْنِ يَحْيَى وَهُوَ مَحْمُولٌ عَلَى الْجَهْرِ بِالْقِرَاءَةِ مَعَ الْإِمَامِ وَاللهُ أَعْلَمُ  

[Machine] Al-Bukhari is not known for this chain of narration, hearing from one another, and it is not authentic like it.  

الْبُخَارِيُّ لَا يُعْرَفُ بِهَذَا الْإِسْنَادِ سَمَاعُ بَعْضِهِمْ مِنْ بَعْضٍ وَلَا يَصِحُّ مِثْلُهُ
