English translation

793. It was reported from Muḥammad bin 'Ajlān, from 'Ubaidullāh bin Miṣsam, from Jābir, he mentioned the story of Mu'ādḥ. He said: "He — meaning the Prophet ﷺ — asked: 'What do you do, O nephew, when you pray?' He said: 'I recite the Fātiḥah, and ask Allāh for Paradise, and seek His refuge from the Fire (of Hell). For I do not know your mumblings, nor the mumblings of Mu'ādh.'" The Prophet ﷺ said: 'Mu'ādh and I (mumble) around these two (matters)." Or similar to this. (Hasan)

793 - حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ حَبِيبٍ، حَدَّثَنَا خَالِدُ بْنُ الْحَارِثِ، حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَجْلَانَ، عَنْ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ مِقْسَمٍ، عَنْ جَابِرٍ - ذَكَرَ قِصَّةَ مُعَاذٍ - قَالَ: وَقَالَ يَعْنِي النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ لِلْفَتَى: «كَيْفَ تَصْنَعُ يَا ابْنَ أَخِي إِذَا صَلَّيْتَ؟» قَالَ: أَقْرَأُ بِفَاتِحَةِ الْكِتَابِ وَأَسْأَلُ اللَّهَ الْجَنَّةَ، وَأَعُوذُ بِهِ مِنَ النَّارِ وَإِنِّي لَا أَدْرِي مَا دَنْدَنَتُكَ وَلَا دَنْدَنَةُ مُعَاذٍ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «إِنِّي وَمُعَاذًا حَوْلَ هَاتَيْنِ» أَوْ نَحْوَ هَذَا
