حَدَّثَنَا عَفَّانُ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْوَارِثِ حَدَّثَنَا حَنْظَلَةُ السَّدُوسِيُّ قَالَ قُلْتُ لِعِكْرِمَةَ إِنِّي أَقْرَأُ فِي صَلَاةِ الْمَغْرِبِ قُلْ أَعُوذُ بِرَبِّ الْفَلَقِ وَقُلْ أَعُوذُ بِرَبِّ النَّاسِ وَإِنَّ نَاسًا يَعِيبُونَ ذَلِكَ عَلَيَّ فَقَالَ وَمَا بَأْسٌ بِذَلِكَ اقْرَأْهُمَا فَإِنَّهُمَا مِنْ الْقُرْآنِ ثُمَّ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ جَاءَ فَصَلَّى رَكْعَتَيْنِ لَمْ يَقْرَأْ فِيهِمَا إِلَّا بِأُمِّ الْكِتَابِ
مسند امام احمد بن حنبل · Hadith 2550
Hanzalah as-Sadoosi narrated: I said to 'Ikrimah: In Maghrib prayer I recite Qul A'oodhu hi Rabbil-falacj and Qul A'oodhu bi Rabbin~Nas, and some people criticise me for that. He said: What is wrong with that? Recite them, for they are from the Qur'an. Then he said: Ibn 'Abbas (RA) told me that the Messenger of Allah (PBUH)came and prayed two rak'ahs in which he did not recite anything but the Essence of the Book (i.e., al~ Fatihah).
