910 - أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ مَنْصُورٍ، عَنْ سُفْيَانَ، عَنْ الزُّهْرِيِّ، عَنْ مَحْمُودِ بْنُ الرَّبِيعِ، عَنْ عُبَادَةَ بْنِ الصَّامِتِ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: «لَا صَلَاةَ لِمَنْ لَمْ يَقْرَأْ بِفَاتِحَةِ الْكِتَابِ»

Commentary
The phrasing of this Hadîth is general; it comprehensively includes every worshipper - the solitary worshipper, the prayer-leader, and the followers of a congregation. Likewise, the term prayer is also general. It refers to all kinds of prayers: an obligatory prayer, or optional, individual, congregational, audible, or inaudible.
