Musnad Ahmad 6357

Translation

Ibn Umar used to say that when the Muslims first arrived in Medina, they would gather and wait for the prayer time without anyone calling for it. One day, they discussed this issue, and some of them said, 'Use a bell like the Christians,' while others said, 'Rather, use a horn like the Jews.' Then Umar said, 'Why don’t you send a man to call for the prayer?' So the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, 'O Bilal, stand and call for the prayer.'
