حَدَّثَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ وَابْنُ السَّرْحِ قَالَا حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ عَنْ الزُّهْرِيِّ عَنْ مَحْمُودِ بْنِ الرَّبِيعِ عَنْ عُبَادَةَ بْنِ الصَّامِتِ يَبْلُغُ بِهِ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ لَا صَلَاةَ لِمَنْ لَمْ يَقْرَأْ بِفَاتِحَةِ الْکِتَابِ فَصَاعِدًا قَالَ سُفْيَانُ لِمَنْ يُصَلِّي وَحْدَهُ
سنن ابودوٗد · Hadith 822
Ubadah bin al-Samit reported the Messenger of Allah ﷺ as saying: the prayer is not valid I one does not recite fatihat al-kitab and something more, sufyan ( the narrator) said: This applies to a man who prays alone.
