حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ، أَخْبَرَنِي الْعَلَاءُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ (١) يَعْقُوبَ الْحُرَقِيِّ - فِي بَيْتِهِ عَلَى فِرَاشِهِ -، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ: أَيُّمَا صَلَاةٍ لَا يُقْرَأُ فِيهَا بِفَاتِحَةِ الْكِتَابِ، فَهِيَ خِدَاجٌ، ثُمَّ هِيَ خِدَاجٌ، ثُمَّ هِيَ خِدَاجٌ، قَالَ: قَالَ أَبُو هُرَيْرَةَ: وَقَالَ قَبْلَ ذَاكَ (٢) حَبِيبِي عَلَيْهِ الصَّلَاةُ وَالسَّلَامُ، قَالَ: فَقَالَ: يَا فَارِسِيُّ، اقْرَأْ بِفَاتِحَةِ الْكِتَابِ، فَإِنِّي سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ: " قَالَ اللهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ: قَسَمْتُ الصَّلَاةَ بَيْنِي وَبَيْنَ عَبْدِي - وَقَالَ مَرَّةً: وَلِعَبْدِي (٣) مَا، ، سَأَلَ -، فَإِذَا قَالَ: {الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ رَبِّ الْعَالَمِينَ} [الفاتحة: ٢] ، قَالَ: حَمِدَنِي عَبْدِي، فَإِذَا قَالَ: {الرَّحْمَنِ الرَّحِيمِ} [الفاتحة: ١] ، قَالَ: مَجَّدَنِي عَبْدِي أَوْ أَثْنَى عَلَيَّ عَبْدِي، فَإِذَا قَالَ: {مَالِكِ يَوْمِ الدِّينِ} ، قَالَ: فَوَّضَ إِلَيَّ عَبْدِي، فَإِذَا قَالَ: {إِيَّاكَ نَعْبُدُ وَإِيَّاكَ نَسْتَعِينُ} [الفاتحة: ٥] ، قَالَ: فَهَذِهِ بَيْنِي وَبَيْنَ عَبْدِي، وَلِعَبْدِي مَا سَأَلَ - وَقَالَ مَرَّةً: مَا سَأَلَنِي - فَيَسْأَلُهُ عَبْدُهُ: {اهْدِنَا الصِّرَاطَ الْمُسْتَقِيمَ صِرَاطَ الَّذِينَ أَنْعَمْتَ عَلَيْهِمْ غَيْرِ الْمَغْضُوبِ عَلَيْهِمْ وَلَا الضَّالِّينَ} [الفاتحة: ٧] ، قَالَ: هَذَا لِعَبْدِي، لَكَ مَا سَأَلْتَ - وَقَالَ مَرَّةً: وَلِعَبْدِي مَا سَأَلَنِي " (١)، ، . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .، ،

Translation

English translation

Abu Huraira (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that any prayer in which Surah Al-Fatiha is not recited is incomplete, incomplete, incomplete. And this statement was also made by my beloved (peace be upon him) before me. Then he said: O Farsi! Recite Surah Al-Fatiha, because I heard the Noble Prophet (ﷺ) say that Allah Almighty has said: I have divided the prayer between Myself and My servant (and My servant will get what he asks for). So when the servant says, "All praise is due to Allah, Lord of the worlds," Allah Almighty says, "My servant has praised Me." When the servant says, "The Most Gracious, the Most Merciful," Allah Almighty says, "My servant has extolled My greatness or glorified Me." When the servant says, "Master of the Day of Judgment," Allah Almighty says, "My servant has entrusted himself to Me." When the servant says, "You alone we worship and You alone we ask for help," Allah Almighty says, "This is between Me and My servant, and My servant will get what he asks for." Then when the servant recites from "Guide us to the straight path" to the end, Allah Almighty says, "This is for My servant, and what you have asked of Me, you will surely receive." In another narration, it is stated: "My servant will receive what he has asked from Me."
