Question:
The questioner asks: What is the ruling on reciting the Basmalah aloud in prayer, and is it a verse of al-Fatihah or not?
Answer:
The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) generally did not recite it aloud; he did not recite al-Fatihah aloud in prayer. Therefore, it is reported in an authentic hadith that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) Bulugh al-Maram 2:162 meaning that they did not recite the Basmalah aloud. This indicates that the Basmalah is not part of al-Fatihah, because if it had been part of al-Fatihah, they would have recited it aloud. Yes.
