And in another narration of Ahmad, Abu Dawud, at-Tirmidhi, and Ibn Hibban is: “Perhaps you recite behind your Imam?” We replied, “Yes.” He [the Prophet (ﷺ)] said, “Do not do so except when it is (Surat) Fatiha al-Kitab, for the Salat (prayer) of the one who does not recite it, is not accepted.”

Ubadah bin As-Samit narrated:”Allah’s Messenger prayed the Subh prayer, and he had difficulty with the recitation. When turned (after finishing) he said: ‘I think that you are reciting behind your Imam?’” He said: “We said: ‘Yes, Messenger of Allah, by Allah!’ He said: ‘Do not do that, except for Umm Al-Kitab, for there is no Salat for one who does not recite it.’
