[1] وَقَالَ أَبُو يَعْلَى: حَدَّثَنَا دَاوُدُ بْنُ رُشَيْدٍ، ثَنَا حَفْصٌ هُوَ ابْنُ غِيَاثٍ، عَنْ أَشْعَثَ بْنِ سَوَّارٍ، عَنْ أَبِي هُبَيْرَةَ، عَنْ جَدِّهِ شَيْبَانَ، قَالَ:
أَتَيْتُ الْمَسْجِدَ، فَدَخَلْتُ، فَأَسْنَدْتُ ظَهْرِي إِلَى حُجْرَةِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ، فَإِذَا النَّبِيُّ ﷺ يَتَسَحَّرُ، فَتَنَحْنَحْتُ، فَقَالَ ﷺ: أَبُو يَحْيَى، هَلُمَّ إِلَى الْغَدَاءِ، قُلْتُ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، إِنِّي أُرِيدُ الصِّيَامَ، قَالَ ﷺ: وَأَنَا أُرِيدُ الصِّيَامَ، وَلَكِنَّ مُؤَذِّنَنَا هَذَا فِي بَصَرِهِ سُوءٌ، أَوْ فِي بَصَرِهِ شَيْءٌ، فَإِنَّهُ أَذَّنَ قَبْلَ أَنْ يَطْلُعَ الْفَجْرُ

✧ I came to the mosque and entered, and I leaned my back against the chamber of the Prophet ﷺ, and there was the Prophet ﷺ taking his pre-dawn meal. I cleared my throat, and he ﷺ said: 'Abu Yahya, come to the meal.' I said: 'O Messenger of Allah, I intend to fast.' He ﷺ said: 'And I intend to fast, but this mu'adhdhin of ours has poor eyesight, or something in his eyesight, for he gave the call to prayer before dawn rose.'
