English translation

[880] 40 - (...) Al-‘Alâ’ bin ‘Abdur-Raḥmân bin Ya‘qûb narrated that Abû As-Sâ’ib, the freed slave of Banû ‘Abdullâh bin Hishâm bin Zuhrah, told him that he heard Abû Hurairah say: “The Messenger of Allâh ﷺ said: ‘Whoever offers a prayer in which he does not recite the Essence of the Qur’ân...’ - a Ḥadîth like that of Sufyân (no. 878). In their Ḥadîth it says: “Allâh, the Mighty and Sublime, says: ‘I have divided the prayer into two halves, between Myself and My slave, one half for Me, and one half for My slave.’”

Arabic text

40 - (395) وَحَدَّثَنِي مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ رَافِعٍ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ، أَخْبَرَنَا ابْنُ جُريْجٍ، أَخْبَرَنِي العلَاءُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمنِ بْنِ يَعْقُوبَ، أَنَّ أَبَا السَّائِبِ، مَوْلَى بَنِي عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ هِشَامِ بْنِ زُهْرَةَ، أَخْبَرَهُ أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ أَبَا هُرَيْرَةَ، يَقُولُ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «مَنْ صلَّى صَلَاةً فَلَمْ يَقْرَأْ فِيهَا بِأُمِّ الْقُرْآنِ» بِمِثْلِ حَدِيثِ سُفْيَانَ وَفِي حَدِيثِهِمَا قَالَ اللهُ تَعَالَى: «قَسَمْتُ الصَّلَاةَ بَيْنِي وَبَيْنَ عَبْدِي نِصْفَيْنِ فَنِصْفُهَا لِي وَنِصْفُهَا لِعَبْدِي»
