English translation

640. It was narrated that 'Aishah said: “The Messenger of Allâh ﷺ said: ‘Bilâl calls the Adhân during the night, so eat and drink until Ibn Umm Maktûm calls the Adhân.’ She said: “And there was no more between them than the time it takes for one to come down and the other to go up.” (Sahîh)

Arabic text

639 - أَخْبَرَنَا يَعْقُوبُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا حَفْصٌ، عَنْ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ، عَنِ الْقَاسِمِ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ قَالَتْ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «إِذَا أَذَّنَ بِلَالٌ فَكُلُوا وَاشْرَبُوا حَتَّى يُؤَذِّنَ ابْنُ أُمِّ مَكْتُومٍ» قَالَتْ: وَلَمْ يَكُنْ بَيْنَهُمَا إِلَّا أَنْ يَنْزِلَ هَذَا وَيَصْعَدَ هَذَا

Commentary

One climbed down and the other would climb up: this is indicating time span between the two Adhân.
