706. It was narrated from Muhammad bin 'Abdullâh bin Zaid that his father said that the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ was thinking of a horn, and he commanded that a bell be made and it was done. Then 'Abdullâh bin Zaid had a dream. He said: "I saw a man wearing two green garments, carrying a bell. I said to him, 'O slave of Allâh, will you sell the bell?' He said; 'What will you do with it?' I said, 'I will call (the people) to prayer.' He said, 'Shall I not tell you of something better than that?' I said, 'What is it?' He said, 'Say: Allâhu Akbar Allâhu Akbar, Allâhu Akbar Allâhu Akbar; Ash-hadu an lâ ilâha illallâh, Ash-hadu an lâ ilâha illallâh; Ash-hadu anna Muhammadan Rasulullâh, Ash-hadu anna Muhammadan Rasulullâh; Hayya 'alas-salâh, Hayya 'alas-salâh; Hayya 'alal-falâh, Hayya 'alal-falâh; Allâhu Akbar Allâhu Akbar; Lâ ilâha illallâh (Allâh is the Most Great, Allâh is the Most Great, Allâh is the Most Great, Allâh is the Most Great; I bear witness that none has the right to be worshipped but Allâh, I bear witness that none has the right to be worshipped but Allâh; I bear witness that Muhammad is the Messenger of Allâh, I bear witness that Muhammad is the Messenger of Allâh; Come to the prayer, Come to the prayer; come to the prosperity, Come to the prosperity; Allâh is the Most Great, Allâh is the Most Great; none has the right to be worshipped but Allâh).'' 'Abdullâh bin Zaid went out and came to the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ, and told him what he had seen. He said, 'O Messenger of Allâh, I saw a man wearing two green garments carrying a bell,' and he told him the story. The Messenger of Allâh ﷺ said, "Your companion has had a dream. Go out with Bilâl to the mosque and teach it to him, for he has a louder voice than you." I ('Abdullâh) went out with Bilâl to the mosque, and I started teaching him the words and he was calling them out. 'Umar bin Al-Khattâb heard the voice and came out saying: "O Messenger of Allâh! By Allâh, I saw the same (dream) as him." (Hasan) Abu 'Ubaid said: "Abu Bakr Al-Hakami told me that 'Abdullâh bin Zaid Al-Ansâri said concerning that: 'I praise Allâh, the Possessor of majesty and honor, A great deal of praise for the Adhân. Since the news of it came to me from Allâh, So due to it, I was honored by the information. During the three nights. Each of which increased me in honor."

707. It was narrated from Sâlim, from his father, that the Prophet ﷺ consulted the people as to how he could call them to the prayer. They suggested a horn, but he disliked that because of the Jews (because the Jews used a horn). Then they suggested a bell but he disliked that because of the Christians (because the Christians used a bell). Then that night the call to the prayer was shown in a dream to a man from among the Ansâr whose name was 'Abdullâh bin Zaid, and to 'Umar bin Khattâb. The Ansâri man came to the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ at night, and the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ commanded Bilâl to give the call to the prayer. (Da'if) Zuhri said: "Bilâl added the phrase "As-salâtu khairum minan-nawm (the prayer is better than sleep)" to the call for the morning prayer, and the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ approved of that." 'Umar said: "O Messenger of Allâh, I saw the same as he did, but he beat me to it."

708. Ibn Juraij narrated: "Abdul-'Aziz bin 'Abdul-Malik bin Abu Mahdhurah narrated from 'Abdullâh bin Muhairiz who was an orphan under the care of Abu Mahdhurah bin Mi'yar that when he was preparing him to travel to Shâm, he said: 'O my uncle, I am going out to Shâm, and I will be asked about how you started the Adhân.' So he informed me that Abu Mahdhurah said: 'I went out with a group of people, and we were somewhere on the road, when the Mu'adh-dhin of the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ gave the call to prayer in the presence of the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ. We heard the voice of the Mu'adh-dhin, and we were shunning it (the Adhân), so we started yelling, imitating it and mocking it. The Messenger of Allâh ﷺ heard us, so he sent some people who brought us to sit in front of him. He said: 'Who is the one whose voice I heard so loud?' The people all pointed to me, and they were telling the truth. He sent them all away, but kept me there and said to me: 'Stand up and give the call to prayer.' I stood up and there was nothing more hateful to me than the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ and what he was telling me to do. I stood up in front of the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ and the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ himself taught me the call. He said: "Say: 'Allâhu Akbar Allâhu Akbar, Allâhu Akbar Allâhu Akbar; Ash-hadu an lâ ilâha illallâh, Ashhadu an lâ ilâha illallâh; Ash-hadu anna Muhammadan Rasulullâh, Ash-hadu anna Muhammadan Rasulullâh (Allâh is the Most Great, Allâh is the Most Great, Allâh is the Most Great, Allâh is the Most Great; I bear witness that none has the right to be worshipped but Allâh, I bear witness that none has the right to be worshipped but Allâh; I bear witness that Muhammad is the Messenger of Allâh, I bear witness that Muhammad is the Messenger of Allâh).'' Then he said: "Raise your voice (and say). Ash-hadu an lâ ilâha illallâh, Ash-hadu an lâ ilâha illallâh; Ash-hadu anna Muhammadan Rasulullâh, Ash-hadu anna Muhammadan Rasulullâh; Hayya 'alas-salâh, Hayya 'alas-salâh; Hayya 'alal-falâh, Hayya 'alal-falâh; 'Allâhu Akbar Allâhu Akbar; Lâ ilâha illallâh (I bear witness that none has the right to be worshipped but Allâh, I bear witness that none has the right to be worshipped but Allâh; I bear witness that Muhammad is the Messenger of Allâh, I bear witness that Muhammad is the Messenger of Allâh; Come to the prayer, come to the prayer; Come to the prosperity, come to the prosperity; Allâh is the Most Great, Allâh is the Most Great; none has the right to be worshipped but Allâh).'' Then he called me when I had finished saying the Adhân, and gave me a small bag in which there was some silver.' Then he put his hand on the forelock of Abu Mahdhurah, then passed it over his face, then over his chest, and over his heart, until the hand of the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ reached his navel. Then the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ said: 'May Allâh bless you and send blessings upon you.' I said: 'O Messenger of Allâh, do you command me to give the call to prayer in Makkah? He said: 'Yes, I command you (to do so).' Then all the hatred I had felt towards the Messenger of Allâh disappeared, and was replaced with love for the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ. I came to 'Attâb bin Asid, the governor of the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ in Makkah, and gave the call to prayer with him by command of the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ." (Sahih) He ('Abdul-'Aziz) said: "Someone who met Abu Mahdhurâh told me the same as 'Abdullâh bin Muhairiz told me."
