Musnad Ahmad 22750

Translation

✧ The Messenger of God ﷺ led us in the dawn prayer, and the recitation became difficult for him. When the Messenger of God ﷺ finished his prayer, he turned his face toward us and said: "I see you reciting behind your imam when he recites aloud." He said: We said: "Yes, by God, O Messenger of God, a murmur." He said: "Then do not do so, except with the Umm al-Qur’ān, for there is no prayer for one who does not recite it."
