Arabic hadith text
وَعَن أبي هُرَيْرَة أَنَّهُ كَانَ يَقُولُ: «مَنْ أَدْرَكَ الرَّكْعَةَ فَقَدْ أَدْرَكَ السَّجْدَةَ وَمَنْ فَاتَتْهُ قِرَاءَةُ أُمِّ الْقُرْآنِ فقد فَاتَهُ خير كثير» . رَوَاهُ مَالك
Translation
Abu Huraira used to say

If one is in time for the rak'a he is credited with the sajda, but if one misses the recitation of Umm al- Qur'an (Al-Qur’an; 1) a great amount of good has passed him by. Malik transmitted it.
