718 - حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو إِسْحَاقَ الشَّافِعِيُّ إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ الْعَبَّاسِ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ رَجَاءٍ الْمَكِّيُّ، عَنْ عَبَّادِ بْنِ إِسْحَاقَ، عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ، عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ الْمُسَيِّبِ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «إِذَا أَذَّنَ الْمُؤَذِّنُ، فَقُولُوا مِثْلَ قَوْلِهِ»

Commentary

When the Mu'adh-dhin calls the Adhân we should say as the Mu'adh-dhin says. But when the Mu'adh-dhin says: "Hayya 'alas-salâh (Come for the prayer)" and "Hayya 'alal-falâh (Come to prosperity)" we are to say: "Lâ hawla wa la quwwata illa billâh" (There is no change of conditions nor power except by Allâh)." (Muslim: 385).
