Arabic (Original)
حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ حَدَّثَنَا سَعِيدٌ عَنْ بُدَيْلٍ عَنْ أَبِي الْجَوْزَاءِ عَنْ عَائِشَةَ أَنَّهَا قَالَتْ كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَفْتَتِحُ صَلَاتَهُ بِالتَّكْبِيرِ وَيَفْتَتِحُ الْقِرَاءَةَ بِ { الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ رَبِّ الْعَالَمِينَ } وَيَخْتِمُهَا بِالتَّسْلِيمِ.
English Translation
Muhammad ibn Ja'far told us, Sa'id told us, from Budayl, from Abu al-Jawza', from Aishah, that she said: "The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, used to open his prayer with the takbir, and open the recitation with 'Praise be to Allah, Lord of the worlds,' and close it with the closing salutation."
