Hadith 488
Sayyiduna Ubadah bin Samit (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates from the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) that he (peace be upon him) said: "The prayer of that person is not valid who does not recite Surah Al-Fatihah." This is the narration of Makhzumi. Hasan bin Muhammad, in his narration, says that Sayyiduna Ubadah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates this hadith as marfu’ from the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). Ahmad and Abdul Jabbar narrate from Sayyiduna Ubadah bin Samit (may Allah be pleased with him) with « عن ». Whereas in the narration of Muhammad bin Al-Waleed, it is stated: "There is no prayer without the recitation of Surah Al-Fatihah."
