Sunan ad-Daraqutni 1168 — on the obligation of reciting Bismillah
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرٍ النَّيْسَابُورِيُّ ، ثنا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الْحَكَمِ ، حَدَّثَنَا أبِي ، وَشُعَيْبُ بْنُ اللَّيْثِ ، قَالا : أَخْبَرَنَا اللَّيْثُ بْنُ سَعْدٍ ، عَنْ خَالِدِ بْنِ يَزِيدَ ، عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ أَبِي هِلالٍ ، عَنْ نُعَيْمٍ الْمُجْمِرِ ، أنَّهُ قَالَ : " صَلَّيْتُ وَرَاءَ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ فَقَرَأَ : بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَنِ الرَّحِيمِ ، ثُمَّ قَرَأَ بِأُمِّ الْقُرْآنِ حَتَّى بَلَغَ غَيْرِ الْمَغْضُوبِ عَلَيْهِمْ وَلا الضَّالِّينَ ، قَالَ : آمِينَ ، وَقَالَ النَّاسُ : آمِينَ ، وَيَقُولُ كُلَّمَا سَجَدَ : اللَّهُ أَكْبَرُ وَإِذَا قَامَ مِنَ الْجُلُوسِ مِنَ اثْنَتَيْنِ ، قَالَ : اللَّهُ أَكْبَرُ ، ثُمَّ يَقُولُ إِذَا سَلَّمَ : وَالَّذِي نَفْسِي بِيَدِهِ إِنِّي لأَشْبَهُكُمْ صَلاةً بِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ " . هَذَا صَحِيحٌ وَرُوَاتُهُ كُلُّهُمْ ثِقَاتٌ .
Nuaim bin Abdullah (may Allah have mercy on him) narrates: I performed prayer behind Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him). He recited "Bismillah ir-Rahman ir-Raheem," then recited Surah Al-Fatihah, until he reached the verse: "Ghairil maghdubi 'alaihim walad-dallin," then he said "Ameen." The people also said "Ameen." Whenever he went into prostration, he would say "Allahu Akbar" while going down, and when he stood up after two rak'ahs, he would stand up saying "Allahu Akbar." Then, when he finished the prayer with salam, he said: "By Him in Whose hand is my soul, I perform the prayer in the best manner according to the way of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) compared to all of you." (Imam Daraqutni, may Allah have mercy on him, says) This hadith is authentic; all its narrators are trustworthy.
