It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu al-Darda' (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Indeed, everything has a beginning (an opening part), and indeed the beginning of the prayer is the first takbir (the opening takbir), so guard it and keep to it."
Abu Ubayd said: I narrated this hadith to Raja' bin Haywah, and he said: Umm al-Darda' narrated this hadith to me from Sayyiduna Abu al-Darda' (may Allah be pleased with them both).

وَقَالَ مُسَدَّدٌ : حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى ، عَنْ عَوْفٍ ، عَنِ الْحَسَنِ ، قَالَ : ( بَلَغَنِي أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ كَانَ يَقُولُ إِذَا افْتَتَحَ الصَّلَاةَ : اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي أَعُوذُ بِكَ مِنَ الشَّيْطَانِ الرَّجِيمِ ، مِنْ هَمْزِهِ ، وَنَفْثِهِ ، وَنَفْخِهِ . قِيلَ : مَا هَمْزُهُ ؟ قَالَ : هَمْزُهُ : الْمُوتَةُ الَّتِي تَأْخُذُ بَنِي آدَمَ ، وَنَفْثُهُ : الشِّعْرُ ، وَنَفْخُهُ : الْكِبْرُ ) .
It is narrated from Hasan al-Basri (may Allah have mercy on him) that it reached him that when the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) began the prayer he would recite this supplication: 'Allahumma inni a'udhu bika min al-shaytan al-rajim, min hamzihi, wa nafthihi, wa nafkhihi' (O Allah, I seek refuge in You from Satan the accursed: from his madness, his bewitching verses and his arrogance). It was asked what is meant by Satan's 'hamz'. He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "It means the state of epilepsy or madness that seizes the children of Adam; his 'nafth' means (blameworthy) poetry; and his 'nafkh' means arrogance and pride."
Imam Musaddad recorded this hadith in his Musnad. Although this narration is disconnected in its chain, because it is Hasan al-Basri narrating directly from the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) (mursal), it has connected supporting narrations in Sunan Abi Dawud and Sunan Ibn Majah, on the basis of which its meaning is strengthened.

When the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) had finished his prayer, he (peace and blessings be upon him) asked: "Who is the one who said these words?" The man said: O Messenger of Allah, it was I, and by saying these words I intended nothing but good.
