English translation

[883] 43 - (...) It was narrated that 'Aţâ' said: "Abû Hurairah said: 'In every Salât you should recite (from the Qur'ân). What the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ made us hear, we make you hear, and what he recited quietly we recite quietly.' A man said: 'Even if I do not recite more than the Essence of the Qur'ân (Al-Fâtiḥah)?' He said: 'If you recite more than that, that is better, but if you stop at that, it will suffice for you.'"

Arabic text

43 - (396) حَدَّثَنَا عَمْرٌو النَّاقِدُ، وَزُهَيْرُ بْنُ حَرْبٍ، - وَاللَّفْظُ لِعَمْرٍو -، قَالَا: حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، أَخْبَرَنَا ابْنُ جُرَيْجٍ، عَنْ عَطَاءٍ، قَالَ: قَالَ أَبُو هُرَيْرَةَ: «فِي كُلِّ الصَّلَاةِ يَقْرَأُ، فَمَا أَسْمَعَنَا رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، أَسْمَعْنَاكُمْ، وَمَا أَخْفَى مِنَّا، أَخْفَيْنَا مِنْكُمْ» فَقَالَ لَهُ رَجُلٌ: إِنْ لَمْ أَزِدْ عَلَى أُمِّ الْقُرْآنِ؟ فَقَالَ: «إِنْ زِدْتَ عَلَيْهَا فَهُوَ خَيْرٌ، وَإِنِ انْتَهَيْتَ إِلَيْهَا أَجْزَأَتْ عَنْكَ»
