Bayhaqi 2406 — Opening the recitation in prayer with "Bismillah"

وَأَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو الْحُسَيْنِ بْنُ الْفَضْلِ الْقَطَّانُ بِبَغْدَادَ أنبأ إِسْمَاعِيلُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ الصَّفَّارُ، ثنا سَعْدَانُ بْنُ نَصْرٍ، ثنا مُعَاذُ بْنُ مُعَاذٍ، عَنْ حُمَيْدٍ الطَّوِيلِ، عَنْ بَكْرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللهِ قَالَ: كَانَ ابْنُ الزُّبَيْرِ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُمَا " يَسْتَفْتِحُ الْقِرَاءَةَ فِي الصَّلَاةِ بِبِسْمِ اللهِ الرَّحْمَنِ الرَّحِيمِ " وَيَقُولُ: مَا يَمْنَعُهُمْ مِنْهَا إِلَّا الْكِبْرُ.
It is narrated from Bakr bin Abdullah that Sayyiduna Ibn al-Zubayr (may Allah be pleased with them both) used to begin the recitation in the prayer with 'In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful' [Surah al-Fatihah: 1], and he would say: The thing that prevents them from reciting it is arrogance.
