حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ رُسْتَهْ، ثَنَا عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ عِمْرَانَ، نَا عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ نَافِعٍ، حَدَّثَنِي مَعْمَرُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ، عَنِ ابْنِ قُسَيْطٍ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ قَالَ:
جَاءَ بِلَالٌ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ يُؤْذِنُهُ بِصَلَاةِ الصُّبْحِ، فَقَالَ: مُرُوا أَبَا بَكْرٍ فَلْيُصَلِّ بِالنَّاسِ، فَعَادَ إِلَيْهِ، فَرَأَى مِنْهُ ثِقْلَةً، فَقَالَ: " مُرُوا أَبَا بَكْرٍ فَلْيُصَلِّ بِالنَّاسِ "، فَذَهَبَ فَأَذَّنَ، فَزَادَ فِي أَذَانِهِ: الصَّلَاةُ خَيْرٌ مِنَ النَّوْمِ، فَقَالَ لَهُ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ: " مَا هَذَا الَّذِي زِدْتَ فِي أَذَانِكَ ؟ " قَالَ: رَأَيْتُ مِنْكَ ثِقْلَةً فَأَحْبَبْتُ أَنْ تَنْشُطَ، فَقَالَ: " اذْهَبْ فَزِدْهُ فِي أَذَانِكَ، وَمُرْ أَبَا بَكْرٍ فَلْيُصَلِّ بِالنَّاسِ ".

✧ Bilal came to the Prophet ﷺ to inform him of the dawn prayer. He said: "Tell Abu Bakr to lead the people in prayer." He returned to him and saw heaviness in him, so he said: "Tell Abu Bakr to lead the people in prayer." He went and called the adhan, and added in his adhan: "Prayer is better than sleep." The Prophet ﷺ said to him: "What is this that you have added in your adhan?" He said: "I saw heaviness in you, and I wanted you to become active." He said: "Go and add it in your adhan, and tell Abu Bakr to lead the people in prayer."
