أَخْبَرَنَا ) أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ الْحَافِظُ، وَأَبُو سَعِيدِ بْنُ أَبِي عَمْرٍو فِي الْفَوَائِدِ، قَالَا: ثَنَا أَبُو الْعَبَّاسِ: مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَعْقُوبَ، أَنْبَأَ الْعَبَّاسُ بْنُ الْوَلِيدِ: يَعْنِي ابْنَ مَزْيَدٍ، أَخْبَرَنِي أَبِي، قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ الْأَوْزَاعِيَّ قَالَ: كَتَبَ إِلَيَّ قَتَادَةُ بْنُ دِعَامَةَ: حَدَّثَنِي أَنَسُ بْنُ مَالِكٍ ؓ:
أَنَّهُ صَلَّى خَلْفَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ وَأَبِي بَكْرٍ، وَعُمَرَ، وَعُثْمَانَ ؓ فَكَانُوا يَسْتَفْتِحُونَ بِـ الْحَمْدُ لِلهِ رَبِّ الْعَالَمِينَ، لَا يَذْكُرُونَ بِسْمِ اللهِ الرَّحْمَنِ الرَّحِيمِ فِي أَوَّلِ قِرَاءَةٍ وَلَا فِي آخِرِهَا

That he prayed behind the Prophet ﷺ, and Abū Bakr, ʿUmar and ʿUthmān (may God be pleased with them), and they would begin with "Praise be to God, Lord of the worlds"; they would not mention "In the name of God, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful" at the beginning of the recitation nor at its end.

- Ibn Rajab
هذه الرواية صحيحة متصلة الإسناد بالسماع المتصل عن قتادة وإسحاق عن أنس
machine translationThis narration is authentic (ṣaḥīḥ), with a connected chain through direct hearing, from Qatādah and Isḥāq, from Anas.
in سنن البيهقي الكبرى, p. 2453 - الحازمي
الأحاديث في الإخفاء نصوص لا تحتمل التأويل وأيضا فلا يعارضها غيرها لثبوتها وصحتها وأحاديث الجهر لا توازيها في الصحة بلا ريب ثم إن أصح أحاديث ترك الجهر حديث أنس وقد اختلف عليه في لفظه فأصح الروايات عنه كانوا يفتتحون القراءة بالحمد لله رب العالمين
machine translationThe hadiths on reciting silently are explicit texts that do not admit of reinterpretation. Moreover, nothing else conflicts with them, because of their soundness and authenticity. The hadiths on reciting aloud are, without doubt, not equal to them in authenticity. Then, the most authentic of the hadiths on not reciting aloud is the hadith of Anas, though its wording was disputed from him. The most authentic of the narrations from him is: "They would begin the recitation with 'Praise be to God, Lord of the worlds.'"

machine translationThis is the wording that al-Khaṭīb declared sound (ṣaḥīḥ).

وكذلك روي عن الأعمش عن قتادة وثابت عن أنس وكذلك رواه عامة أصحاب قتادة منهم هشام الدستوائي وسعيد بن أبي عروبة وأبان بن يزيد العطار وحماد بن سلمة وحميد الطويل وأيوب السختياني والأوزاعي وسعيد بن بشير وغيرهم وكذلك رواه معمر وهمام واختلف عنهما في لفظه وهو المحفوظ عن قتادة وغيره عن أنس
machine translationIt was likewise narrated from al-Aʿmash, from Qatādah and Thābit, from Anas. It was likewise narrated by the majority of Qatādah's students, among them Hishām al-Dastuwāʾī, Saʿīd b. Abī ʿArūbah, Abān b. Yazīd al-ʿAṭṭār, Ḥammād b. Salamah, Ḥumayd al-Ṭawīl, Ayyūb al-Sakhtiyānī, al-Awzāʿī, Saʿīd b. Bashīr and others. Maʿmar and Hammām also narrated it, but the wording differs from them. And it is the preserved (maḥfūẓ) version from Qatādah and others, from Anas.
