حَدَّثَنَا يُوسُفُ بْنُ يَعْقُوبَ بْنِ إِسْحَاقَ بْنِ بُهْلُولٍ ، ثنا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ عَلِيٍّ الْعَمِّيُّ ، ثنا عُمَرُ بْنُ حَبِيبٍ الْقَاضِي ، ثنا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ إِسْحَاقَ ، بِهَذَا الإِسْنَادِ نَحْوَهُ ، وَقَالَ : " كَأَنَّكُمْ تَقْرَءُونَ خَلْفِي ؟ " ، قُلْنَا : أَجَلْ ، هَذَا يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ، قَالَ : " فَلا تَفْعَلُوا إِلا بِفَاتِحَةِ الْكِتَابِ فَإِنَّهُ لا صَلاةَ إِلا بِهَا " .
This narration is also transmitted with some other chains in the same manner, however, in it are these words: "(It seems) as if you are reciting behind me." We said: "Yes, O Messenger of Allah! We recite quickly." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Do not do so, but recite Surah Al-Fatihah, for without it the prayer is not valid."
