وَأَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو نَصْرِ بْنُ قَتَادَةَ، أنبأ أَبُو مُحَمَّدٍ أَحْمَدُ بْنُ إِسْحَاقَ الْبَغْدَادِيُّ بِهَرَاةَ، أنبأ مُعَاذُ بْنُ نَجْدَةَ، ثنا خَلَّادُ بْنُ يَحْيَى، أنبأ عَبْدُ الْعَزِيزِ بْنُ أَبِي رَوَّادٍ، ثنا نَافِعٌ، عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُمَا " أَنَّهُ كَانَ إِذَا افْتَتَحَ الصَّلَاةَ كَبَّرَ، ثُمَّ قَرَأَ {بِسْمِ اللهِ الرَّحْمَنِ الرَّحِيمِ الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ} [الفاتحة: ٢] فَإِذَا فَرَغَ قَرَأَ بِسْمِ اللهِ الرَّحْمَنِ الرَّحِيمِ قَالَ: وَكَانَ يَقُولُ: لِمَ كُتِبَتْ فِي الْمُصْحَفِ إِنْ لَمْ تَقْرَأْ؟ ".
It is reported from Sayyiduna Ibn Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) that when he began the prayer, he would say the takbir, then recite: "In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. All praise is for Allah, Lord of the worlds" [Surah al-Fatihah: 1-2], and when he had finished Surah al-Fatihah, he recited "In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful" [Surah al-Fatihah: 1]. Nafi' said that Ibn Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) used to say: If it is not to be recited, then why was it written in the Qur'an?
