It was narrated that Jâbir bin 'Abdullâh said: "The Messenger of Allâh ﷺ said: 'Whoever says when he hears the call to the prayer: "Allâhumma Rabba hâdhihida' watit-tâmmah was-salâtil-qâ'imah, âti Muhammadanil-wasilata walfadilah, wab'athhu maqâman mahmudanilladhi wa'adtah (O Allâh, Lord of this perfect call and the prayer to be offered, grant Muhammad the privilege (of intercession) and also the eminence, and resurrect him to the praised position that You have promised)," my intercession for him will be permitted on the Day of Resurrection.'" (Sahih)
