Sunan Abu Dawud 825 — The One Who Did Not Recite The Faithah

The above mentioned tradition has been transmitted through a different chain of narrators by Ubadah bin al-Samit like the version of al-Rabib Sulaiman. This version adds: Makhul used to recite Surah al Fatihah quietly in every rak’ah of the sunset, night and dawn prayers. Makhul said: Recite it quietly in the prayer in which the imam recites the Quran loudly when he recites Fatihat al-kitab and observes the period of silence. If he does not observe the period of silence, recite it before him (i. e before his recitation), or along with him or after him; do not give it up in any case.
