The Prayer with the Basmala: Was It the Practice of the Prophet (peace be upon him)?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The first question of Fatwa No. ( 3230 )
Q1: Did the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) pray with the Basmala or not?
A1: The established Sunnah indicates that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) recited the Basmala in prayer before Surat al-Fatihah and before any other surah, except for Surat al-Tawbah, but he did not recite it aloud in the prayers where recitation is loud. And success is from Allah, and may Allah send prayers and blessings upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and his Companions.
