Arabic (Original)
حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ عَنْ أَبِي أَيُّوبَ عَنْ قَتَادَةَ عَنْ أَنَسٍ قَالَ صَلَّيْتُ خَلْفَ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَأَبِي بَكْرٍ وَعُمَرَ فَكَانُوا يَفْتَتِحُونَ بِ { الْحَمْدُ }.

Sufyan narrated to us from Abu Ayyub, from Qatadah, from Anas, who said, "I prayed behind the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, and Abu Bakr, and Umar, and they used to begin with 'Praise be to Allah' (Surah al-Fatihah)."
