He who observed prayer but he did not recite the Umm al-Qur'an in it, and the rest of the hadith is the same as transmitted by Sufyan, and in this hadith the words are:" Allah the Most High said: the prayer is divided into two halves between Me and My servant. The half of it is for Me and the half of it is for My servant."  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ ح وَحَدَّثَنِي مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ رَافِعٍ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ أَخْبَرَنَا ابْنُ جُرَيْجٍ أَخْبَرَنِي الْعَلاَءُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ يَعْقُوبَ أَنَّ أَبَا السَّائِبِ مَوْلَى بَنِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ هِشَامِ بْنِ زُهْرَةَ أَخْبَرَهُ أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ أَبَا هُرَيْرَةَ يَقُولُ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ مَنْ صَلَّى صَلاَةً فَلَمْ يَقْرَأْ فِيهَا بِأُمِّ الْقُرْآنِ بِمِثْلِ حَدِيثِ سُفْيَانَ وَفِي حَدِيثِهِمَا قَالَ اللَّهُ تَعَالَى قَسَمْتُ الصَّلاَةَ بَيْنِي وَبَيْنَ عَبْدِي نِصْفَيْنِ فَنِصْفُهَا لِي وَنِصْفُهَا لِعَبْدِي  

"I heard Abu Hurairah say: 'The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "Whoever offers a prayer in which he does not recite Umm Al-Quran (Al Fatihah), it is deficient, it is deficient, it is deficient, incomplete." I (Abu As-Sa'ib) said: 'O Abu Hurairah, sometimes I am behind the Imam.' He poked me in the arm and said: 'Recite it to yourself, O Persian! For I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say: "Allah says: "I have divided prayer between Myself and My slave into two halves, and My slave shall have what he has asked for.'" The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "Recite, for when the slave says: All the praises and thanks be to Allah, the Lord of all that exists, Allah says: 'My slave has praised Me.' And when he says: The Most Gracious, the Most Merciful, Allah says: 'My slave has extolled Me.' And when he says: The Only Owner (and the Only Ruling Judge) of the Day of Recompense (i.e. the Day of Resurrection), Allah says: 'My slave has glorified Me' . And when he says: You (alone) we worship, and You (alone) we ask for help (for each and everything), He says: 'This is between Me and My slave, and My slave shall have what he has asked for.' And when he says: 'Guide us to the straight way, the way of those on whom You have bestowed Your grace, not (the way) of those who earned Your anger, nor of those who went astray, He says: 'This is for My slave, and My slave shall have what he asked for.'"

from his father, from Abu Hurairah that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "Whoever performs a Salat in which he does not recite Umm Al-Qur'an in it, then it is aborted, it is aborted, not complete." He Said: "I said: 'O Abu Hurairah! Sometimes I am behind an Imam.' He said: 'O Ibn Al-Farisi! Then recite it to yourself. For indeed I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ saying: Allah, the Most High said: "I have divided the Salat between Myself and My slaves into two halves. Half of it is for Me, and half of it for My slave, and My slave shall have what he asks for. My slave stands and says: All praise is due to Allah, the Lord of All that exists." So Allah, Blessed is He and Most High says: "My slave has expressed his gratitude to Me." He says: "The Merciful, the Beneficent. So he says: "My slave has praised Me." He says: Owner of the Day of Reckoning. He says: "My slave has glorified Me. And this is for Me, and between Me and My slave is: It is You alone whom we worship and it is You alone from whom we seek aid" until the end of the Surah "This is for My slave and My slave shall have what he asks for." So he says: Guide us to the straight path. The path of those upon whom You have bestowed your favor, not those with whom is Your wrath, now those who are astray."'

"Allah said: 'I have divided the prayer between Myself and My slave into two halves, and My slave shall have what he has asked for.'When the slave says: 'Al-hamdulillah i rabbil Alameen (All the praise is to Allah, the Lord of all that exists),' Allah says:'My slave has praised Me, and My slave shall have what he has asked for.'

from his father, from Abu Hurairah that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "Whoever performs a Salat in which he does not recite Umm Al-Qur'an in it, then it is aborted, it is aborted, not complete." He Said: "I said: 'O Abu Hurairah! Sometimes I am behind an Imam.' He said: 'O Ibn Al-Farisi! Then recite it to yourself. For indeed I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ saying: Allah, the Most High said: "I have divided the Salat between Myself and My slaves into two halves. Half of it is for Me, and half of it for My slave, and My slave shall have what he asks for. My slave stands and says: All praise is due to Allah, the Lord of All that exists." So Allah, Blessed is He and Most High says: "My slave has expressed his gratitude to Me." He says: "The Merciful, the Beneficent. So he says: "My slave has praised Me." He says: Owner of the Day of Reckoning. He says: "My slave has glorified Me. And this is for Me, and between Me and My slave is: It is You alone whom we worship and it is You alone from whom we seek aid" until the end of the Surah "This is for My slave and My slave shall have what he asks for." So he says: Guide us to the straight path. The path of those upon whom You have bestowed your favor, not those with whom is Your wrath, now those who are astray."' (Using translation from Tirmidhī 2953)

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Whoever prays a prayer and does not recite in it the mother of the Qur'an, then it is incomplete." He repeated this three times. Then I said, "O Abu Hurairah, sometimes I am behind the Imam." He winked at me and said, "Recite it to yourself, O Persian, for I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say, 'Allah says, I have divided the prayer between Me and My servant into two halves. Half of it is for Me and half of it is for My servant. And for My servant is what he asks for.' The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, 'Recite: Praise be to Allah, the Lord of all the worlds' [Surah Al-Fatihah, verse 2]. Allah says, 'My servant has praised Me.' And recite: 'The Most Merciful, the Most Compassionate' [Surah Al-Fatihah, verse 1]. Allah says, 'My servant has glorified Me.' And recite: 'Master of the Day of Judgment.' Allah says, 'My servant has exalted Me.' And recite: 'You alone we worship, and You alone we ask for help' [Surah Al-Fatihah, verse 5]. This verse is between Me and My servant, and for My servant is what he asks for. And recite: 'Guide us on the Straight Path, the path of those who have received Your grace; not the path of those who have brought down wrath upon themselves, nor of those who have gone astray' [Surah Al-Fatihah, verse 7]. This is for My servant, and for My servant is what he asks for." This is the wording of the Hadith of Qutaybah. And in the Hadith of Al-Qa'nabiyy, the servant says, 'Master of the Day of Judgment.' Allah says, 'My servant has exalted Me.' And this verse is between Me and My servant, and the rest is like it.

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: Allah, glorified and exalted be He, said: "I have divided this Surah between Me and My servant into two halves. When My servant says, 'In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful,' I say, 'My servant has mentioned My name.' When My servant says, 'Praise be to Allah, the Lord of all the worlds,' I say, 'My servant has praised Me.' When My servant says, 'The Most Gracious, the Most Merciful,' I say, 'My servant has glorified Me.' When My servant says, 'Master of the Day of Judgment,' I say, 'My servant has glorified Me.' When My servant says, 'You alone we worship, and You alone we ask for help,' I say, 'This is between Me and My servant, and My servant shall have what he asks for.'"  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ اللهُ تَبَارَكَ وَتَعَالَى قَسَمْتُ هَذِهِ السُّورَةَ بَيْنِي وَبَيْنَ عَبْدِي نِصْفَيْنِ فَإِذَا قَالَ الْعَبْدُ بِسْمِ اللهِ الرَّحْمَنِ الرَّحِيمِ يَقُولُ اللهُ ذَكَرَنِي عَبْدِي فَإِذَا قَالَ الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ رَبِّ الْعَالَمِينَ يَقُولُ اللهُ حَمِدَنِي عَبْدِي فَإِذَا قَالَ الرَّحْمَنِ الرَّحِيمِ يَقُولُ اللهُ أَثْنَى عَلَيَّ عَبْدِي فَإِذَا قَالَ مَالِكِ يَوْمِ الدِّينِ يَقُولُ اللهُ مَجَّدَنِي عَبْدِي وَإِذَا قَالَ إِيَّاكَ نَعْبُدُ وَإِيَّاكَ نَسْتَعِينُ قَالَ هَذَا لِعَبْدِي وَلِعَبْدِي مَا سَأَلَ  

"قَال الله ﷻ: "قَسَمت الصَلاةَ بَيني وَبينَ عَبْدِي نصفَين وَلعبْدِى مَا سَألَ، فَإِذَا قَال العبد: الحمد لله رِب العَالمِينَ، قال: حَمِدني عَبْدِي، فَإِذا قَال: الرحْمنِ الرحِيم، قَال اللهُ: أثنَى عَلَيَّ عَبْدِي، فَإِذَا قَال: مَالِكَ يَوْم الدين، قَال: مَجدنِى عَبْدِي، وَإذَا قَال: إِيَّاكَ نعبد وإيَّاكَ نَسْتعين؛ قَال: هذَا بيني وبين عَبْدى وَلَعَبدِي مَا سألَ، فَإِذَا قَال: اهْدِنَا الصّرَاطَ الْمُسْتَقِيم صِراطَ الذِين أنعمت عَلَيهِم غَيرِ المَغْضُوبِ عَلَيهِم وَلَا الضَّالينَ، قَال: هذَا لعَبْدِى وَلعَبْدي مَا سَألَ".
