اُردوEn
وَعَنْهُ أَيْضًا قَالَ: صَلَّيْتُ خَلْفَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَأَبِي بَكْرٍ وَعُمَرَ وَعُثْمَانَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُمْ فَكَانُوا يَسْتَفْتِحُونَ الْقِرَاءَةَ بِـ {الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ رَبِّ الْعَالَمِينَ} لَا يَذْكُرُونَ {بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَنِ الرَّحِيمِ} فِي أَوَّلِ الْقِرَاءَةِ وَلَا فِي آخِرِهَا
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him), he says: I have offered prayer behind the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), Sayyiduna Abu Bakr, Sayyiduna Umar, and Sayyiduna Uthman (may Allah be pleased with them), they would begin the recitation with {اَلْحَمْدُ لِلّٰہِ رَبِّ الْعَالَمِیْنَ}, they would neither mention {بِسْمِ اللّٰہِ الرَّحْمٰنِ الرَّحِیْمِ} at the beginning of the recitation nor at its end.
