وَقَالَ ابْنُ أَبِي عُمَرَ: حَدَّثَنَا الْمُقْرِئُ، ثَنَا الْإِفْرِيقِيُّ، ثَنَا سَلَامَانُ بْنُ عَامِرٍ الشَّعْبَانِيُّ، عَنْ أَبِي عُثْمَانَ الْأَصْبَحِيِّ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ ؓ قَالَ: إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ كَانَ يَقُولُ:
« الْمُؤَذِّنُ فَضْلُهُ عَلَى مَنْ حَضَرَ الصَّلَاةَ بِأَذَانِهِ عِشْرُونَ وَمِائَةٌ، فَإِنْ أَقَامَ فَأَرْبَعُونَ وَمِائَتَا حَسَنَةٍ، إِلَّا مَنْ قَالَ مِثْلَ قَوْلِهِ
