Musnad Ahmad 18070

Translation

✧ Perhaps you recite while the imam is reciting — he said it twice or three times. They said, "O Messenger of Allah, indeed we do that." He said, "Then do not do so, except that one of you recites the Opening of the Book (al-Fātiḥah)."

  يرويه أيوب السختياني وخالد الحذاء واختلف عنه فأما أيوب فإن عبيد الله بن عمرو رواه عن أيوب عن أبي قلابة عن أنس عن النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم وخالفه سلام أبو المنذر فرواه عن أيوب عن أبي قلابة عن أبي هريرة وخالفهما الربيع بن بدر رواه عن أيوب عن الأعرج عن أبي هريرة وخالفهم ابن علية وابن عيينة وحماد بن زيد رووه عن أيوب عن أبي قلابة مرسلا عن النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم وهو صحيح من رواية أيوب فأما خالد الحذاء فرواه عن أبي قلابة عن محمد بن أبي عائشة عن رجل من أصحاب النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم قال ذلك سفيان الثوري ويزيد بن زريع وبشر بن المفضل عن خالد ورواه ابن علية وخالد بن عبد الله وشعبة وعلي بن عاصم عن خالد الحذاء عن أبي قلابة عن محمد بن أبي عائشة مرسلا عن النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم ورواه هشيم عن خالد عن أبي قلابة مرسلا لم يجاوز به أبا قلابة والمرسل أصح

  machine translationIt is narrated by Ayyūb al-Sakhtiyānī and Khālid al-Ḥadhdhā', and there is disagreement concerning it. As for Ayyūb: ʿUbaydullāh b. ʿAmr narrated it from Ayyūb, from Abū Qilābah, from Anas, from the Prophet ﷺ. Sallām Abū al-Mundhir differed with him and narrated it from Ayyūb, from Abū Qilābah, from Abū Hurayrah. Al-Rabīʿ b. Badr differed with both of them and narrated it from Ayyūb, from al-Aʿraj, from Abū Hurayrah. Ibn ʿUlayyah, Ibn ʿUyaynah and Ḥammād b. Zayd differed with them all and narrated it from Ayyūb, from Abū Qilābah, as a mursal report from the Prophet ﷺ, and this is the sound version of Ayyūb's narration. As for Khālid al-Ḥadhdhā': Sufyān al-Thawrī, Yazīd b. Zurayʿ and Bishr b. al-Mufaḍḍal narrated it from Khālid, from Abū Qilābah, from Muḥammad b. Abī ʿĀʾishah, from a man among the Companions of the Prophet ﷺ. Ibn ʿUlayyah, Khālid b. ʿAbdillāh, Shuʿbah and ʿAlī b. ʿĀṣim narrated it from Khālid al-Ḥadhdhā', from Abū Qilābah, from Muḥammad b. Abī ʿĀʾishah, as a mursal report from the Prophet ﷺ. Hushaym narrated it from Khālid, from Abū Qilābah, as a mursal report, not going beyond Abū Qilābah with it. The mursal version is more sound (aṣaḥḥ). Report a problem
