669. It was narrated that Abû Al-Muthanna, the Mu'adhhdhin of the Jami' Masjid, said: "I asked Ibn 'Umar about the Adhân and he said: 'At the time of the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ, the phrases of the Adhân were recited twice and the phrases of the Iqâmah once, except that you should say (the phrase) Qad qâmat is-ṣalâh (prayer is about to begin) twice. When we heard 'prayer is about to begin' we would perform Wudû' and go out to pray.'" (Ṣaḥīḥ)
668 - أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ تَمِيمٍ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا حَجَّاجٌ، عَنْ شُعْبَةَ قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ أَبَا جَعْفَرٍ مُؤَذِّنَ مَسْجِدِ الْعُرْيَانِ، عَنْ أَبِي الْمُثَنَّى، مُؤَذِّنِ مَسْجِدِ الْجَامِعِ قَالَ: سَأَلْتُ ابْنَ عُمَرَ، عَنِ الْأَذَانِ فَقَالَ: " كَانَ الْأَذَانُ عَلَى عَهْدِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مَثْنَى مَثْنَى، وَالْإِقَامَةُ مَرَّةً مَرَّةً إِلَّا أَنَّكَ إِذَا قُلْتَ: قَدْ قَامَتِ الصَّلَاةُ قَالَهَا مَرَّتَيْنِ، فَإِذَا سَمِعْنَا قَدْ قَامَتِ الصَّلَاةُ تَوَضَّأْنَا، ثُمَّ خَرَجْنَا إِلَى الصَّلَاةِ "

[1] With this chain, At-Tirmidhî recorded it (No. 302) and An-Nasâ'î in Al-Kubra (No. 1631). It is the narration about the man who prayed incorrectly, and in it, the Prophet ﷺ instructed him: "Then Tashhad, then say the Iqâmah." And they say that the meaning of Tashhad here is call the Adhân. An-Nasâ'î recorded the Hadîth with different chains (1054, 1137, 1314, 1315). Whereas the wording narrated by At-Tirmidhî, and the author in Al-Kubra, mentions what the author mentioned in the chapter, the other cited versions that An-Nasâ'î in this book quoted do not. So it is as if he narrated the chain here for Hadîth, indicating the same version that At-Tirmidhî narrated, and he himself in Al-Kubra, but he did not want to narrate the actual text here. Abû Dâwûd also narrated it with the order for the Adhân and Iqâmah, through a different route of transmission (No. 861). And it is among the proofs used for the view that the Adhân and Iqâmah are obligatory – since it has been ordered in the Hadîth of the one who prayed incorrectly.
