Jami' at-Tirmidhi — Hadith #26396

Sufyan bin Waki` told us, Muhammad bin al-Fudayl told us, on the authority of Abu Sufyan, Tarif al-Saadi on the authority of Abu Nadra, on the authority of Abu Sa`id, he said, he said The Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, “The key to prayer is purity, its prohibition is the takbīr, its permissibility is the salutation, and there is no prayer for one who has not recited.” With “praise” and a surah - in an obligatory prayer or something else. Abu Issa said this is a good hadith. On the authority of Ali and Aisha. He said, “The hadith of Ali bin Abi Talib in this regard is better in its chain of transmission and more authentic than the hadith of Abu Sa’id, and we wrote it in the beginning of the book on ablution.” And work According to the scholars, among the Companions of the Prophet, may God bless him and grant him peace, and those after them, Sufyan Al-Thawri, Ibn Al-Mubarak, and Al-Shafi’i say this. Ahmad and Ishaq said that the prohibition of prayer is the takbeer, and a man should not enter the prayer except by saying the takbeer. Abu Issa said. And I heard Abu Bakr Muhammad bin Aban Mustamli Waki’ saying: I heard Abd al-Rahman bin Mahdi saying: If a man begins the prayer with seventy It is one of the names of God, and he does not say “Allahu Akbar” that is not sufficient, but if he does so before he gives the salutation, I command him to perform ablution and then return to his place. So he submits, but the matter is as it is. He said, “And Abu Nadhrah, whose name is Al-Mundhir ibn Malik ibn Qutta’a.”
