حَدَّثَنَا يَعْقُوبُ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ إِسْحَاقَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ بْنِ الْحَارِثِ التَّيْمِيُّ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ زَيْدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ رَبِّهِ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ زَيْدٍ قَالَ

لَمَّا أَمَرَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ بِالنَّاقُوسِ لِيُضْرَبَ بِهِ لِلنَّاسِ فِي الْجَمْعِ لِلصَّلَاةِ طَافَ بِي وَأَنَا نَائِمٌ رَجُلٌ يَحْمِلُ نَاقُوسًا فِي يَدِهِ، فَقُلْتُ لَهُ: يَا عَبْدَ اللهِ، أَتَبِيعُ النَّاقُوسَ ؟ قَالَ: مَا تَصْنَعُ بِهِ ؟ قَالَ: فَقُلْتُ نَدْعُو بِهِ إِلَى الصَّلَاةِ، قَالَ: أَفَلَا أَدُلُّكَ عَلَى مَا هُوَ خَيْرٌ مِنْ ذَلِكَ ؟ قَالَ: فَقُلْتُ لَهُ: بَلَى، قَالَ: تَقُولُ اللهُ أَكْبَرُ اللهُ أَكْبَرُ، اللهُ أَكْبَرُ اللهُ أَكْبَرُ، أَشْهَدُ أَنْ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللهُ أَشْهَدُ أَنْ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللهُ، أَشْهَدُ أَنَّ مُحَمَّدًا رَسُولُ اللهِ أَشْهَدُ أَنَّ مُحَمَّدًا رَسُولُ اللهِ، حَيَّ عَلَى الصَّلَاةِ حَيَّ عَلَى الصَّلَاةِ، حَيَّ عَلَى الْفَلَاحِ حَيَّ عَلَى الْفَلَاحِ، اللهُ أَكْبَرُ اللهُ أَكْبَرُ، لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللهُ. ثُمَّ اسْتَأْخَرَ غَيْرَ بَعِيدٍ، ثُمَّ قَالَ: تَقُولُ إِذَا أُقِيمَتِ الصَّلَاةُ: اللهُ أَكْبَرُ اللهُ أَكْبَرُ، أَشْهَدُ أَنْ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللهُ أَشْهَدُ أَنَّ مُحَمَّدًا رَسُولُ اللهِ، حَيَّ عَلَى الصَّلَاةِ حَيَّ عَلَى الْفَلَاحِ، قَدْ قَامَتِ الصَّلَاةُ قَدْ قَامَتِ الصَّلَاةُ، اللهُ أَكْبَرُ اللهُ أَكْبَرُ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللهُ. فَلَمَّا أَصْبَحْتُ أَتَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ فَأَخْبَرْتُهُ بِمَا رَأَيْتُ، فَقَالَ: إِنَّهَا لَرُؤْيَا حَقٍّ إِنْ شَاءَ اللهُ، فَقُمْ مَعَ بِلَالٍ، فَأَلْقِ عَلَيْهِ مَا رَأَيْتَ فَلْيُؤَذِّنْ بِهِ؛ فَإِنَّهُ أَنْدَى صَوْتًا مِنْكَ. قَالَ: فَقُمْتُ مَعَ بِلَالٍ، فَجَعَلْتُ أُلْقِيهِ عَلَيْهِ، وَيُؤَذِّنُ بِهِ قَالَ: فَسَمِعَ ذَلِكَ عُمَرُ بْنُ الْخَطَّابِ، - وَهُوَ فِي بَيْتِهِ - فَخَرَجَ يَجُرُّ رِدَاءَهُ يَقُولُ: وَالَّذِي بَعَثَكَ بِالْحَقِّ لَقَدْ رَأَيْتُ مِثْلَ الَّذِي أُرِيَ، قَالَ: فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ: " فَلِلَّهِ الْحَمْدُ

✧ When the Messenger of God ﷺ ordered the bell to be struck to gather people for prayer, a man carrying a bell in his hand came to me while I was sleeping. I said to him: O servant of God, will you sell the bell? He said: What will you do with it? I said: We will call to prayer with it. He said: Shall I not guide you to something better than that? I said: Yes. He said: Say: God is greatest, God is greatest, God is greatest, God is greatest; I bear witness that there is no god but God, I bear witness that there is no god but God; I bear witness that Muhammad is the Messenger of God, I bear witness that Muhammad is the Messenger of God; come to prayer, come to prayer; come to success, come to success; God is greatest, God is greatest; there is no god but God. Then he stepped back a short distance and said: You say when the prayer is established: God is greatest, God is greatest; I bear witness that there is no god but God; I bear witness that Muhammad is the Messenger of God; come to prayer; come to success; prayer has begun, prayer has begun; God is greatest, God is greatest; there is no god but God. When morning came, I went to the Messenger of God ﷺ and told him what I had seen. He said: It is a true vision, God willing. Stand with Bilal and convey to him what you saw, and let him call the adhan with it, for he has a louder voice than you. So I stood with Bilal, and I began to convey it to him while he called the adhan with it. Umar b. al-Khattab heard that while he was in his house, so he came out dragging his cloak and said: By the One who sent you with the truth, I saw the like of what he saw. The Messenger of God ﷺ said: "Praise be to God."

    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.
