625. Narrated Anas bin Mālik رضي الله عنه: "When the Mu'adh-dhīn pronounced the Adhān, some of the Companions of the Prophet ﷺ would proceed to the pillars of the mosque (for the prayer) till the Prophet ﷺ arrived and in this way they used to offer two Rak'ā before the Maghrib prayer. There used to be a little time between the Adhān and the Iqāma." Shu'ba said, "There used to be a very short interval between the two (Adhān and Iqāma)."
