أَخْبَرَنِي إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ الْحَسَنِ وَيُوسُفُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ وَاللَّفْظُ لَهُ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا حَجَّاجٌ عَنِ ابْنِ جُرَيْجٍ قَالَ أَخْبَرَنِي عَبْدُ الْعَزِيزِ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْمَلِكِ بْنِ أَبِي مَحْذُورَةَ أَنَّ عَبْدَ اللهِ بْنَ مُحَيْرِيزٍ
أَخْبَرَهُ وَكَانَ يَتِيمًا فِي حِجْرِ أَبِي مَحْذُورَةَ حَتَّى جَهَّزَهُ إِلَى الشَّامِ قَالَ قُلْتُ لِأَبِي مَحْذُورَةَ أَيْ عَمِّ إِنِّي خَارِجٌ إِلَى الشَّامِ وَأَخْشَى أَنْ أُسْأَلَ عَنْ تَأْذِينِكَ فَأَخْبِرْنِي فَأَخْبَرَنِي أَنَّ أَبَا مَحْذُورَةَ قَالَ لَهُ خَرَجْتُ فِي نَفَرٍ فَكُنَّا فِي بَعْضِ طَرِيقِ حُنَيْنٍ مَقْفَلَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ مِنْ حُنَيْنٍ فَلَقِيَنَا رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ فِي بَعْضِ الطَّرِيقِ فَأَذَّنَ مُؤَذِّنُ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ بِالصَّلَاةِ عِنْدَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَسَمِعْنَا صَوْتَ الْمُؤَذِّنِ وَنَحْنُ عَنْهُ مُنْكَبُّونَ فَظَلَلْنَا نَحْكِيهِ وَنَهْزَأُ بِهِ فَسَمِعَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ الصَّوْتَ فَأَرْسَلَ إِلَيْنَا حَتَّى وَقَفْنَا بَيْنَ يَدَيْهِ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ أَيُّكُمُ الَّذِي سَمِعْتُ صَوْتَهُ قَدِ ارْتَفَعَ فَأَشَارَ الْقَوْمُ إِلَيَّ وَصَدَقُوا فَأَرْسَلَهُمْ كُلُّهُمْ وَحَبَسَنِي فَقَالَ «قُمْ فَأَذِّنْ بِالصَّلَاةِ» فَقُمْتُ فَأَلْقَى عَلَيَّ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ التَّأْذِينَ هُوَ نَفْسُهُ قَالَ قُلْ 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 ثُمَّ قَالَ ارْجِعْ فَامْدُدْ مِنْ صَوْتِكَ ثُمَّ قُلْ 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 دَعَانِي حِينَ قَضَيْتُ التَّأْذِينَ فَأَعْطَانِي صُرَّةً فِيهَا شَيْءٌ مِنْ فِضَّةٍ فَقُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ مُرْنِي بِالتَّأْذِينِ بِمَكَّةَ فَقَالَ «قَدْ أَمَرْتُكَ بِهِ» فَقَدِمْتُ عَلَى عَتَّابِ بْنِ أُسَيْدٍ عَامِلِ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ بِمَكَّةَ فَأَذَّنْتُ مَعَهُ بِالصَّلَاةِ عَنْ أَمْرِ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ

✧ He informed him, and he was an orphan in the care of Abu Mahdhurah until he equipped him for Syria. He said: I said to Abu Mahdhurah, "O my uncle, I am going to Syria and I fear that I will be asked about your adhan, so tell me." So he told me that Abu Mahdhurah said to him: I went out with a group, and we were on part of the road of Hunayn, returning with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ from Hunayn. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ met us on part of the road, and the mu'adhdhin of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ called the adhan for prayer in the presence of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. We heard the voice of the mu'adhdhin while we were turned away from him, so we began to imitate it and mock it. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ heard the sound, so he sent for us until we stood before him. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Which of you is the one whose voice I heard raised?" The people pointed to me, and they were truthful. So he sent them all away and kept me. He said, "Stand and call the adhan for prayer." So I stood, and the Messenger of Allah ﷺ himself dictated the adhan to me. He said: Say: Allahu Akbar, Allahu Akbar, Allahu Akbar, Allahu Akbar. Ashhadu an la ilaha illallah, Ashhadu an la ilaha illallah. Ashhadu anna Muhammadan Rasulullah, Ashhadu anna Muhammadan Rasulullah. Then he said: Go back and stretch your voice, then say: Ashhadu an la ilaha illallah, Ashhadu an la ilaha illallah. Ashhadu anna Muhammadan Rasulullah, Ashhadu anna Muhammadan Rasulullah. Hayya 'ala al-salah, Hayya 'ala al-salah. Hayya 'ala al-falah, Hayya 'ala al-falah. Allahu Akbar, Allahu Akbar. La ilaha illallah. Then he called me when I finished the adhan and gave me a pouch containing some silver. I said, "O Messenger of Allah, order me to call the adhan in Makkah." He said, "I have ordered you to do it." So I went to 'Attab b. Usayd, the governor of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ in Makkah, and I called the adhan for prayer with him according to the command of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ.
