[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "There is no prayer for one who has no ablution, and there is no ablution for one who does not mention the name of Allah upon it." Abu Saad Ahmad bin Muhammad al-Malini narrated to us that Abu Ahmad bin Adi al-Hafiz narrated to us that Ahmad bin Hafs al-Saadi said: Ahmad bin Hanbal was asked about the ruling regarding mentioning the name of Allah during ablution, while he was present, and he said, "I do not know of any established hadith about it, and the strongest thing I have about it is the hadith of Kathir bin Zaid, on the authority of Rubayih, and Rubayih is not reliable." I was informed by Abu Isa al-Tirmidhi, on the authority of Muhammad bin Ismail al-Bukhari, that he said, "There is no hadith in this chapter that is more sound to me than the hadith of Rabah bin Abdur Rahman." Abu Isa said, "And this hadith is narrated by Hammad bin Salamah, on the authority of Sadaka, the freed slave of Ibn Zubair, on the authority of Abu Thufal, on the authority of Abu Bakr bin Huwaitib, on the authority of the Prophet ﷺ, and it is a Mursal hadith." The sheikh (Abu Isa) said: "And Abu Thufal is not very reliable." Abu Muhammad Ibrahim al-Farisi narrated to us that he is Ibrahim bin Abdullah, and I am Muhammad bin Sulaiman bin Faris, on the authority of Muhammad bin Ismail al-Bukhari, who said: Salamah al-Laythi narrated to me on the authority of Abu Hurairah, regarding mentioning the name (of Allah during ablution). It is not known to Salamah that he heard it from Abu Hurairah, nor to Yahya that he heard it from his father.
