أَخْبَرَنَا إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ قَالَ أَخْبَرَنَا سُفْيَانُ وَهُوَ ابْنُ عُيَيْنَةَ عَنِ الْعَلَاءِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ يَعْقُوبَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ قَالَ

سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ «كُلُّ صَلَاةٍ لَا يُقْرَأُ فِيهَا بِأُمِّ الْقُرْآنِ فَهِيَ خِدَاجٌ فَهِيَ خِدَاجٌ فَهِيَ خِدَاجٌ» قَالَ يَا أَبَا هُرَيْرَةَ إِنِّي أَحْيَانًا أَكُونُ وَرَاءَ الْإِمَامِ قَالَ يَا فَارِسِيُّ اقْرَأْ بِهَا فِي نَفْسِكَ فَإِنِّي سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ قَالَ اللهُ ﷻ «قَسَمْتُ الصَّلَاةَ بَيْنِي وَبَيْنَ عَبْدِي وَلِعَبْدِي مَا سَأَلَ» قَالَ الْعَبْدُ {الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ رَبِّ الْعَالَمِينَ} [الفاتحة 2] قَالَ اللهُ «حَمِدَنِي عَبْدِي» فَإِذَا قَالَ {الرَّحْمَنِ الرَّحِيمِ} [الفاتحة 1] قَالَ «اللهُ أَثْنَى عَلَيَّ عَبْدِي» فَإِذَا قَالَ {مَالِكِ يَوْمِ الدِّينِ} قَالَ اللهُ «مَجَّدَنِي عَبْدِي» أَوْ قَالَ «فَوَّضَ إِلَيَّ عَبْدِي» فَإِذَا قَالَ {إِيَّاكَ نَعْبُدُ وَإِيَّاكَ نَسْتَعِينُ} [الفاتحة 5] قَالَ هَذِهِ بَيْنِي وَبَيْنَ عَبْدِي وَلِعَبْدِي مَا سَأَلَ قَالَ سُفْيَانُ دَخَلْتُ عَلَى الْعَلَاءِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ فِي بَيْتِهِ وَهُوَ مَرِيضٌ فَسَأَلْتُهُ عَنْ هَذَا الْحَدِيثِ فَحَدَّثَنِي بِهِ

✧ I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say: "Any prayer in which the Mother of the Qur'an is not recited is deficient, is deficient, is deficient." He said: O Abu Hurayrah, sometimes I am behind the imam. He said: O Farisi, recite it to yourself, for I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say: Allah ﷻ said: "I have divided the prayer between Myself and My servant, and My servant shall have what he asks." The servant says: {Al-hamdu lillahi rabbil-'alamin} [al-Fatihah: 2]. Allah says: "My servant has praised Me." When he says: {Al-Rahman al-Rahim} [al-Fatihah: 1], He says: "My servant has extolled Me." When he says: {Maliki yawmid-din}, Allah says: "My servant has glorified Me," or He says: "My servant has entrusted to Me." When he says: {Iyyaka na'budu wa iyyaka nasta'in} [al-Fatihah: 5], He says: "This is between Me and My servant, and My servant shall have what he asks." Sufyan said: I entered upon al-'Ala' b. 'Abd al-Rahman in his house while he was ill and asked him about this hadith, and he narrated it to me.
