(مَسْأَلَةُ قِرَاءَةِ بِسْمِ اللَّهِ فِي الصَّلَاةِ)
(The issue of reciting “Bismillāh” in prayer)
Mishkat al-Masabih 824 — The issue of reciting “Bismillāh” in prayer
وَعَنْ أَنَسٍ: أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَأَبا بكر وَعمر رَضِي الله عَنْهُمَا كَانُوا يَفْتَتِحُونَ الصَّلَاةَ بِ «الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ رَبِّ الْعَالمين») رَوَاهُ مُسلم
Anas said that the Prophet, Abu Bakr and ‘Umar used to begin the prayer with, “Praise be to God the Lord of the universe.” Muslim transmitted it.
