716. It was narrated that Bilâl came to the Prophet ﷺ to call him for the Fajr prayer, and was told: "He is sleeping." He said: "As-salātu khairum minan-nawm, As-salātu khairum min an-nawm (The prayer is better than sleep, the prayer is better than sleep). These words were approved of in the Adhân for the Fajr, and that is how it remained. (Da'if)

Arabic text

716 - حَدَّثَنَا عَمْرُو بْنُ رَافِعٍ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ الْمُبَارَكِ، عَنْ مَعْمَرٍ، عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ، عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ الْمُسَيِّبِ، عَنْ بِلَالٍ «أَنَّهُ أَتَى النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يُؤْذِنُهُ بِصَلَاةِ الْفَجْرِ» فَقِيلَ: هُوَ نَائِمٌ، فَقَالَ: «الصَّلَاةُ خَيْرٌ مِنَ النَّوْمِ، الصَّلَاةُ خَيْرٌ مِنَ النَّوْمِ» فَأُقِرَّتْ فِي تَأْذِينِ الْفَجْرِ، فَثَبَتَ الْأَمْرُ عَلَى ذَلِكَ
