when the Messenger of Allah ﷺ ordered a bell to be made so that it might be struck to gather the people for prayer, a man carrying a bell in his hand appeared to me while I was asleep, and I said; servant of ‘abd Allah, will you sell the bell? He asked; what will you do with it? I replied; we shall use it to call the people to prayer. He said; should I not suggest you something better than that. I replied: certainly. Then he told me to say: Allah is most great, Allah is most great, Allah is most great, Allah is most great. I testify that there is no god but Allah, I testify that Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah. Come to pray, come to pray; come to salvation; come to salvation. Allah is most great, Allah is most great. I testify that there is no god but Allah. He then moved backward a few steps and said: when you utter the IQAMAH, you should say: Allah is most great, Allah is most great. I testify that there is no god but Allah, I testify that Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah. Come to prayer, come to salvation. The time for prayer has come, the time for prayer has come: Allah is most great, Allah is most great. There is no god but Allah. When the morning came, I came to the Messenger of Allah (May peace be upon him) and informed him of what I had seen in the dream. He said: it is a genuine vision, and he then should use it to call people to prayer, for he has a louder voice than you have. So I got up along with Bilal and began to teach it to him and he used it in making the call to prayer. ‘Umar b. al-khattab (Allah be pleased with him) heard it while he was in his house and came out trailing his cloak and said: Messenger of Allah. By him who has sent you with the truth, I have also seen the kind of thing as has been shown to him. The Messenger of Allah (May peace be upon him) said: To Allah be the praise. Abu Dawud said; Al-Zuhri narrated this tradition in a similar way from Sa’id b. al-Musayyib on the authority of ‘Abd Allah b. Zaid. In this version Ibn Ishaq narrated from al-Zuhri: Allah is most great. Allah is most great, Allah is most great, Allah is most great. Ma;mar and yunus narrated from al-Zuhri; Allah is most great, Allah is most great. They did not report it twice again.

قال وسمعت أبا عبد الله يقول من أقام مثنى مثنى لم أعنفه وليس به بأس قيل لأبي عبد الله حديث أبي محذورة صحيح قال أما أنا فلا أدفعه قيل له أفليس حديث أبي محذورة بعد حديث أبي عبد الله بن زيد لأن حديث أبي محذورة بعد فتح مكة فقال أليس قد رجع النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم إلى المدينة فأقر بلالا على أذان عبد الله بن زيد قال أبو عمر بكل ما قالوا قد رويت الآثار عن النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم ولكني كرهت ذكرها خشية الإملال والإطالة ولشهرتها في كتب المصنفين كسلت عن إيرادها مع طولها وقد جئت بمعانيها ومذاهب الفقهاء فيها وبالله التوفيق وذهب أحمد بن حنبل وإسحاق بن راهويه والطبري وداود إلى إجازة القول بكل ما روي عن رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم في ذلك وحملوا ذلك على الإباحة والتخيير قالوا كل ذلك جائز لأنه قد ثبت جميع ذلك عن النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم وعمل به أصحابه بعده
machine translationHe said: I heard Abū ʿAbdillāh say: Whoever calls the iqāmah in pairs, I do not blame him, and there is no harm in it. Abū ʿAbdillāh was asked: Is the hadith of Abū Maḥdhūrah sound? He said: As for me, I do not reject it. It was said to him: Does the hadith of Abū Maḥdhūrah not come after the hadith of ʿAbdullāh b. Zayd, since the hadith of Abū Maḥdhūrah is after the conquest of Mecca? He said: Did the Prophet ﷺ not return to Medina and confirm Bilāl on the adhān of ʿAbdullāh b. Zayd? Abū ʿUmar said: Reports have been narrated from the Prophet ﷺ for everything they said, but I disliked mentioning them for fear of causing boredom and length, and because of their fame in the books of the compilers, I was reluctant to cite them given their length. I have brought their meanings and the positions of the jurists on them, and success is with Allah. Aḥmad b. Ḥanbal, Isḥāq b. Rāhawayh, al-Ṭabarī and Dāwūd held that it is permissible to say whatever has been narrated from the Messenger of Allah ﷺ on this, and they took it as permissibility and free choice. They said: All of it is permissible, because all of it is established from the Prophet ﷺ and his Companions acted on it after him.
