Musannaf Abd al-Razzaq, Vol. 2, pg. 381, Hadith # 2700:
عبد الرزاق، عَنِ ابْنِ جُرَيْجٍ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنِي عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ عُثْمَانَ بْنِ خُشَيْمٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ أَبِي بَكْرِ بْنِ حَفْصِ بْنِ عُمَرَ بْنِ سَعْدٍ، أَنَّ مُعَاوِيَةَ صَلَّى بِالْمَدِينَةِ لِلنَّاسِ الْعَتَمَةَ، فَلَمْ يَقْرَأُ بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَنِ الرَّحِيمِ﴾ [الفاتحة : ١]، وَلَمْ يُكَبِّرْ بَعْضَ هَذَا التَّكْبِيرِ الَّذِي يُكَبِّرُ النَّاسَ، فَلَمَّا انْصَرَفَ نَادَاهُ مَنْ سَمِعَ ذَلِكَ مِنَ الْمُهَاجِرِينَ وَالْأَنْصَارِ فَقَالُوا: يَا مُعَاوِيَةُ، أَسَرَقْتَ الصَّلَاةَ أَمْ نَسِيتَ ؟ أَيْنَ ﴿بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَنِ الرَّحِيمِ﴾ [الفاتحة: ١] وَاللَّهُ أَكْبَرُ حِينَ تَهْوِي سَاجِدًا؟ فَلَمْ يَعُدْ مُعَاوِيَةُ لِذَلِكَ بَعْدُ.
‘Abd al-Razzaq narrated from Ibn Jurayj, who said: ‘Abd Allah b. ‘Uthman b. Khushaym told me, from ‘Abd Allah b. Abi Bakr b. Hafs b. ‘Umar b. Sa‘d, that Mu‘awiyah led the people in the night (‘Isha) prayer in Medina, and he did not recite “In the Name of God, the Most Merciful, the Most Compassionate” [al-Fatiha: 1], nor did he make some of the takbirs (saying “Allahu Akbar”) that people usually make.
When he finished, those of the Muhajirun and Ansar who heard that called out to him and said:
“O Mu‘awiyah, have you stolen the prayer, or did you forget? Where is ‘In the Name of God, the Most Merciful, the Most Compassionate’, and ‘God is the Greatest’ when you go down in prostration?”
So Mu‘awiyah never repeated that afterward.
