2 Narrated Anas قال أن س حد يث Radiullahu Unho Hadith 577 The people mentioned the fire and the bell (they suggested those as signals to indicate the starting of prayers), and by that they mentioned the Jews and the Christians. Then Bilal was ordered to pronounce Adhan for the prayer by saying its wordings twice, and for the Iqama (the call for the actual standing for the prayers in rows) by saying its wordings once. (Iqama is pronounced when the people are ready for the prayer). Narrated Ibn 'Umar 2 رض ي اهلل عن ه ذكر وا الن ار والن اق وس فذكر وا ال يه ود والن ص ارى ن يش ف ع الا ذان وأن ي وت ر الا قامة فا م ر ب لا ل أ قال اب ن ع م ر رض ي اهلل عن ه حد يث Radiullahu Unho Hadith 578 When the Muslims arrived at Medina, they used to assemble for the prayer, and used to guess the time for it. During those days, the practice of Adhan for the prayers had not been introduced yet. Once they discussed this problem regarding the call for prayer. Some people suggested the use of a bell like the Christians, others proposed a trumpet like the horn used by the Jews, but 'Umar was the first to suggest that a man should call (the people) for the prayer; so Allah's Apostle Sallallahu Alaihe Wasallam ordered Bilal to get up and pronounce the Adhan for prayers. Narrated Anas س ل م ون ح ين قد م وا الم د ينة يج تم ع و ن کان الم ف تح ن ون الص لا ة ل س ي نادى له ا فتکل م وا يو م ا في ذل ك فقال بع ض ه م اتخ ذ وا ناق وس ا م ث ل ناق وس الن ص ارى وقال بع ض هم بل ب وق ا م ث ل قر ن ال يه و د فقال ع م ر أولا تب عث ون رج لا ي ناد ي ب الص لا ة فقا ل فنا د وسل م يا ب لا ل ق م علي ه رس ول اهلل ص اهلل ب الص لا ة قال أن س حد يث Radiullahu Unho Hadith 579 Bilal was ordered to repeat the wording of the Adhan for prayers twice, and to pronounce the wording of the Iqamas once except "Qad-qamat-is-Salat". Narrated Anas bin Malik أ م ر ب لا ل الا قامة ن رض ي اهلل عن ه يش ف ع أ ي وت ر الا قامة إ لا الا ذان وأن رض ي اهلل عن ه قال أن سب ن مال ك حد يث Radiullahu Unho Hadith 580

3 When the number of Muslims increased they discussed the question as to how to know the time for the prayer by some familiar means. Some suggested that a fire be lit (at the time of the prayer) and others put forward the proposal to ring the bell. Bilal was ordered to pronounce the wording of Adhan twice and of the Iqama once only. Narrated Abu Qilaba 3 يع لم وا وق ت الص لا ة لم ا كث ر الن اس قال ذكر وا أن يض ر ب وا ي ور وا نار ا أو ب شي ء يع ر ف ونه فذكر وا أن ر ي وت ن يش ف ع الا ذان وأن ر ب لا ل أ ناق وس ا فا م الا قامة قال أبي ق لا بة رض ي اهلل عن ه حد يث Radiullahu Unho Hadith 581 Anas said, "Bilal was ordered to pronounce the wording of Adhan twice and of Iqama once only." (The sub narrator) Isma'li said, "I mentioned that to Aiyub and he added (to that), "Except Iqama (i.e. Qad-Qamatis- Salat which should be said twice)." Narrated Abu Huraira ن يش ف ع ر ب لا ل أ عن أن س أ م الا قامة قا ل إ سم اع ي ل فذكر ت الا قامة أبي ه ري رة اهلل رض ي عن ه ر ي وت الا ذان وأن لا ي و ب فقا ل إ لا قال حد يث Radiullahu Unho Hadith 582 said, "When the Adhan is pronounced Satan takes to his heels and passes wind with noise during his flight in order not to hear the Adhan. When the Adhan is completed he comes back and again takes to his heels when the Iqama is pronounced and after its completion he returns again till he whispers into the heart of the person (to divert his attention from his prayer) and makes him remember things which he does not recall to his mind before the prayer and that causes him to forget how much he has prayed." Narrated 'Abdul Rahman ي وسل م قا ل إ ذا ن ود أن رس ول اهلل ص اهلل علي ه ل لص لا ة أد بر الش ي ط ان ول ه ض راط حتى لا يس مع داء أق بل حتى إ ذا ث و ب ب الص لا ة الت ا ذ ين فا ذا ق الن ال ث و يب أق بل حتى يخ ط ر بين الم ر ء أد بر حتى إ ذا ق يك ن يذ ك ر ال م ونف س ه يق ول اذ ك ر كذااذ ك ر كذا لم حتى يظ ل الر ج ل لا يد ر يكم ص قال عب د الر حم ن رض ي اهلل عن ه حد يث Radiullahu Unho Hadith 583 Abu Sa'id Al-Khudri told my father, "I see you liking sheep and the wilderness. So whenever you are with your sheep or in the wilderness and you want to pronounce أخ بر ه أن أبا سع يد الخ د ر ي قال ل ه إ ني أراك تح ب ال غنموال باد يةفا ذا ك ن ت في غنم ك أو باد يت ك فا ذ ن ت

4 Adhan for the prayer raise your voice in doing so, for whoever hears the Adhan, whether a human being, a jinn or any other creature, will be a witness for you on the Day of Resurrection." Abu Said added, "I heard it (this narration) from Allah's Apostle Sallallahu Alaihe Wasallam." Narrated Humaid داء فا ن ه لا يس م ع مدى ب الص لا ة فار فع صو تك ب الن و ذ ن ج ن ولا إ ن س ولا شي ء إ لا شه دل ه يو م صو ت الم ال ق يامة قال أب و سع ي د سم ع ت ه م ن رس ول اهلل ص اهلل علي ه وسل م د رض ي اهلل عن ه قال حد يث Radiullahu Unho Hadith 584 Anas bin Malik said, "Whenever the Prophet Sallallahu Alaihe Wasallam went out with us to fight (in Allah's cause) against any nation, he never allowed us to attack till morning and he would wait and see: if he heard Adhan he would postpone the attack and if he did not hear Adhan he would attack them." He (Anas) added, "We reached Khaibar at night and in the morning when he did not hear the Adhan for the prayer, he (the Prophet) rode and I rode behind Abi Talha and my foot was touching that of the Prophet Sallallahu Alaihe Wasallam. He (Anas) added, they (The inhabitants of Khaibar) came out with their baskets and spades and when they saw the Prophet Sallallahu Alaihe Wasallam they shouted 'Muhammad! By Allah, Muhammad and his army.' When Allah's Apostle Sallallahu Alaihe Wasallam saw them, he said, "Allahu-Akbar! Allahu- Akbar! Khaibar is ruined. Whenever we approach a (hostile) nation (to fight), then evil will be the morning of those who have been warned." Narrated Abu Said Al- عن حم ي أنس ب ن مال ك أن ال ب ي وسل م ص اهلل علي ه يك ن يغ ز و ب نا حتى ي ص ب ح کان إ ذا غزا ب نا قو م ا ل م يس مع أذان ا سم ع أذان اكف عن ه م وإ ن ل م وين ظ ر فا ن م فان ته نا إ ل ي ه أغار علي ه م قال فخرج نا إ لى خ بر ورك ب ت خل ف يس مع أذان ا رك ب لا فلم ا أص بح ول م ل ي ل تمس قدم ال ب ي ه أبي ط ل حة وإ ن قدم ي ص اهلل علي م کات ل ه م ومساح يه وسل م قال فخرج وا إ ل نا بم علي ه وسل م قال وا مح م د فلم ا رأو ا ال ب ي ص اهلل س قال فلم ا رآه م رس ول مح م د اهلل واهلل والخ م ه وسل م قا ل اهلل أك بر اهلل أك بر خر ب ت ص اهلل علي ن ن ذر ي م فساء صباح الم إ ن اإ ذا نزل نا ب ساحة قو خ بر أبي سع يد الخ د ر ي رض ي اهلل عن ه قال حد يث Khudri Radiullahu Unho Hadith 585 4

5 said, "Whenever you hear the Adhan, say what the Mu'adhdhin is saying. Narrated 'Isa bin Talha وسل م أن رس ول اهلل ص اهلل علي ه و ذ ن داء فق ول وا م ث ل مايق ول الم الن ع ب ن ط ل حة رض ي اهلل عن ه إ ذا سم ع ت م قا ل قال حد يث Radiullahu Unho Hadith 586 That he had heard Muawiya repeating the words of Adhan up to "Wa ash-hadu Anna Muhammadan Rasulul-lah Sallallahu Alaihe Wasallam (and I testify that Muhammad is Allah's Apostle.)" Narrated Yahya أن ه سم ع م عاو يةيو م ا مح م د ا رس ول اهلل فقال م ث له إ لى قو ل ه وأش هد أن قال يح يى رض ي اهلل عن ه حد يث Radiullahu Unho Hadith 587 When the Mu'adhdhin said, "Haiya alassala(t) (come for the prayer)." (Muawiya) said, "La hawla wala quwata illa billah (There is neither might nor any power except with Allah)" and added, "We heard your Prophet Sallallahu Alaihe Wasallam saying the same." Narrated Jabir bin Abdullah Radiullahu Unho said, "Whoever after listening to the Adhan says, O Allah! Lord of this perfect call and of the regular prayer which is going to be established! Kindly give Muhammad Sallallahu Alaihe Wasallam the right of intercession and superiority and send him to the best and the highest place in Paradise which You promised him', then intercession for me will be permitted for him on the Day of Resurrection". Narrated Abu Huraira حد يث Hadith 588 لم ا قال حي ع الص لا ة قال لا حو ل ولا ق و ة إ لا ب اهلل وسل م يق ول ص اهلل علي ه وقال هكذا سم ع نا ن ي ك م قال جاب ر ب ن عب د اهلل رض ي اهلل عن ه ين وسل م قا ل من قال ح أن رس ول اهلل ص اهلل علي ه داء الل ه م رب هذ ه الد ع وة الت ام ة والص لا ة يس مع الن ال قاي مة آت مح م د ا ال وس يلة وال فض يلة واب عث ه مقام ا مح م ود ا ال ذ ي وعد ت ه حل ت ل ه شفاعتي يو م ال ق يام أبي ه ري رة رض ي اهلل عن ه قال حد يث Radiullahu Unho Hadith 589 ة 5

6 said, "If the people knew the reward for pronouncing the Adhan and for standing in the first row (in congregational prayers) and found no other way to get that except by drawing lots they would draw lots, and if they knew the reward of the Zuhr prayer (in the early moments of its stated time) they would race for it (go early) and if they knew the reward of 'Isha' and Fajr (morning) prayers in congregation, they would come to offer them even if they had to crawl." Narrated 'Abdullah bin Al 6 أن رس ول اهلل وسل م علي ه ص اهلل يع لم قا ل ل و داء والص ف الا و ل ث م ل م يج د وا إ لا أن الن اس ما في الن ه لا س تهم وا ول و يع لم ون ما في الت ه ج ير يس ته م وا علي ة والص ب ح ون ما في ال عتم يع لم لا س بق وا إ ل ي ه ول و لا تو هم اول و حب و ا رض ي اهلل عن ه قال عب د اهلل ب ن الح ار ث حد يث Harith Radiullahu Unho Hadith 590 Once on a rainy muddy day, Ibn Abbas delivered a sermon in our presence and when the Muadhdhin pronounced the Adhan and said, "Haiya ala-s-sala (come for the prayer)" Ibn Abbas ordered him to say 'Pray at your homes.' The people began to look at each other (surprisingly). Ibn Abbas said. "It was done by one who was much better than me (i.e. the Prophet or his Mu'adhdhin), and it is a license.' Narrated Salim bin Abdullah Radiullahu Unho My father said that Allah s Apostle Sallallahu Alaihe Wasallam said, "Bilal pronounces Adhan at night, so keep on eating and drinking (Suhur) till Ibn Um Maktum pronounces Adhan." Salim added, "He was a blind man who would not pronounce the Adhan unless he was told that the day had dawned." Narrated Hafsa حد يث Hadith 591 ن حي ع الص لا ة فا مره أ و ذ ن في يو م رد غ فلم ابلغ الم قو م بع ض ه م إ لى ي ناد ي الص لا ة في الر حا ل فنظ ر ال ا عز م ة بع ض فقال فعل هذا من ه و خير م ن ه وإ قال سال م ب ن عب د اهلل رض ي اهلل عن ه عن ب لا لا مك ت وم أب ي ه أن رس ول اهلل وسل م قا ل إ ن ص اهلل علي ه ي اب ن أ م ي و ذ ن ب لي ل فک ل وا واش رب وا حتى ي ناد ث م قال وکان رج لا أع لا ي ناد ي حتى ي قا ل ل ه أص بح ت أص بح ت قال ت حف ص ة حد يث Radiullahu Unha Hadith 592 رض ي اهلل عن ها

7 When the Muadhdhin pronounced the Adhan for Fajr prayer and the dawn became evident, the Prophet Sallallahu Alaihe Wasallam ordered a two Rakat light prayer (Sunna) before the Iqama of the compulsory (congregational) prayer. Narrated 'Aisha 7 إ ذااع تك ف وسل م کان أن رس ول اهلل ص اهلل علي ه ص رك عتين خف يفتين ل لص ب ح وبدا الص ب ح و ذ ن الم قب ل أن ت قام الص لا ة قال ت عاي شة رض ي اهلل عن ها حد يث Radiullahu Unha Hadith 593 used to offer two light Rakat between the Adhan and the Iqama of the Fajr prayer. Narrated 'Abdullah bin وسل م ي ص ل ي رك عتين علي ه کان ال ب ي ص اهلل داء والا قامة م ن صلا ة الص ب ح خف يفتين بين الن رض ي اهلل عن ه قال عب د اهلل ب ن ع م ر حد يث 'Umar Radiullahu Unho Hadith 594 said, "Bilal pronounces the Adhan at night, so keep on eating and drinking (Suhur) till Ibn Um Maktum pronounces the Adhan." Narrated 'Abdullah bin أن رس ول اهلل ص ا هلل علي ه وسل م قا ل ي ناد ي ب لي ل فک ل وا واش رب وا حتى ي ناد ي ب لا لا إ ن مك ت و م اب ن أ م عن ه اهلل قال عب د اهلل ب ن مس ع و د رض ي حد يث Mas'ud Radiullahu Unho Hadith 595 said, "The Adhan pronounced by Bilal should not stop you from taking Suhur, for he pronounces the Adhan at night, so that the one offering the late night prayer (Tahajjud) from among you might hurry up and the sleeping from among you might wake up. It does not mean that dawn or morning has started." Then he (the Prophet) pointed with his fingers and raised them up (towards the sky) and then lowered them (towards the earth) like this (Ibn Mas'ud imitated the gesture of the Prophet). Az- Zuhri gestured with his two index fingers which he put on each other and then stretched them to the right and left. These gestures illustrate the way real dawn وسل م قا ل لا يم نعن أحدك م عن ال ب ي ص اهلل علي ه و أو أحد ا م ن ك م أذان ب لا ل م ن سح ور ه فا ن ه ي و ذ ن أ ه ناي مك م ول س ي ناد ي ب لي ل ل ير ج ع قاي مك م ول ي ب يق ول ال فج ر أو الص ب ح وقال ب ا صاب ع ه ورفعها إ لى أن فو ق وط ا ط ا إ لى أس فل حتى يق ول هكذا وقا ل ز هير ب سب اب ي ه إ ح داهم ا فو ق الا خ رى ث م مد ها عن يم ن ه ال ه وشم

8 appears. It spreads left and right horizontally. The dawn that appears in the high sky and lowers down is not the real dawn). Narrated 'Aisha قال ت عاي شة رض ي اهلل عن ها حد يث Radiullahu Unha Hadith 596 said, "Bilal pronounces the Adhan at night, so eat and drink (Suhur) till Ibn Um Maktum pronounces the Adhan." Narrated Abdullah bin Mughaffal Radiullahu Unho said thrice, "There is a prayer between the two Adhans (Adhan and Iqama)," and added, "For the one who wants to pray." Narrated Anas bin Malik 8 وسل م عن ال ب ي ص اهلل علي ه ي و ذ ن ب لي ل فک ل وا واش رب وا حتى ي و ذ ن ب لا لا إ ن أن ه قا ل مك ت و م اب ن أ م حد يث Hadith 597 قال عب د اهلل رض ي اهلل ب ن م غف ل عن ه وسل م علي ه أن رس ول اهلل ص اهلل ن شاء أذانين صلا ة ثلا ث ا لم رض ي اهلل عن ه بين ک ل قا ل قال أنس ب ن مال ك حد يث Radiullahu Unho Hadith 598 "When the Muadhdhin pronounced the Adhan, some of the companions of the Prophet Sallallahu Alaihe Wasallam would proceed to the pillars of the mosque (for the prayer) till the Prophet arrived and in this way they used to pray two Rakat before the Maghrib prayer. There used to be a little time between the Adhan and the Iqama." Shu'ba said, "There used to be a very short interval between the two (Adhan and Iqama)." Narrated 'Aisha و ذ ن إ ذاأذ ن قام ناس م ن أص حاب ال ب ي ص کان الم ي حتى يخ ر جال ب ي وسل م ي تد ر و ن الس وار اهلل علي ه ص اهلل علي ه وسل م وه م كذل ك ي ص ل ون الر ك عتين يك ن بين الا ذان والا قامة شي ء قا ل قب ل الم غ ر ب ول م ش ع بة ل م يك ن ب نه ما إ لا قل ي ل رض ي اهلل عن ها قال ت عا ي شة حد يث Radiullahu Unha Hadith 599 used to pray two light Rakat before the morning (compulsory) prayer after the day dawned and the Muadhdhin had finished his و ذ ن وسل م إ ذا سكت الم کان رس ول اهلل ص اهلل علي ه فركع رك عتين خف يفتين ب الا ولى م ن صلا ة ال فج ر قام

9 Adhan. He then would lie on his right side till the Muadhdhin came to pronounce the Iqama. Narrated Abdullah bin Mughaffal Radiullahu Unho The prophet Sallallahu Alaihe Wasallam said, "There is a prayer between the two Adhans (Adhan and Iqama), there is a prayer between the two Adhans." And then while saying it the third time he added, "For the one who wants to (pray)." Narrated Malik bin Huwairth Radiullahu Unho I came to the Prophet Sallallahu Alaihe Wasallam with some men from my tribe and stayed with him for twenty nights. He was kind and merciful to us. When he realized our longing for our families, he said to us, "Go back and stay with your families and teach them the religion, and offer the prayer and one of you should pronounce the Adhan for the prayer when its time is due and the oldest one amongst you should lead the prayer." Narrated Abu Dhar حد يث Hadith 600 حد يث Hadith قب ل صلا ة ال فج ر بع د أن يس تب ين ال فج ر ث م اض ط ج ع و ذ ن ل لا قامة ع ش ق ه الا يم ن حتى يا ت يه الم قال عب د اهلل رض ي اهلل ب ن م غف ل عن ه قال ال ب ي ص ا هلل علي ه وسل م بين ک ل أذانين صلا ة ن شاء بين ک ل أذانين صلا ة ث م قال في الث ال ثة لم قال مال ك ب ن الح وي ر ث رض ي اهلل عن ه وسل م في نف ر م ن قو م ي أتي ت ال ب ي ص اهلل علي ه فا قم نا ع ن ده ع ش ر ين ل ي لة وکان رح يم ا رف يق ا فلم ا م رأى شو قنا إ لى أهال نا قال ار ج ع وا فك ون وا ف يه وه م وصل وا فا ذا حض رت الص لا ة فل ي و ذ ن ل ك م وعل م أ حد ك م ول يو م ك م أك بر ك م أبي ذر رض ي اهلل عن ه قال حد يث Radiullahu Unho Hadith 602 We were in the company of the Prophet Sallallahu Alaihe Wasallam on a journey and the Muadhdhin wanted to pronounce the Adhan for the (Zuhr) prayer. The Prophet said to him, "Let it become cooler." Then he again wanted to pronounce the Adhan but the Prophet; said to him, "Let it become cooler." The Muadhdhin again wanted to pronounce the Adhan for the و ذ ن وسل م في سفر فا راد الم ك ن امعال ب ي ص اهلل علي ه ي و ذ ن فقال ل ه أب ر د ي و ذ ن فقال ل ه أب ر د ث م أراد أن أن ي و ذ ن فقال ل ه أب ر د ح تى ساوى الظ ل ث م أراد أن وسل م إ ن ش د ةالح ر الت ل ول فقال ال ب ي ص اهلل علي ه

10 ع prayer but the Prophet said, "Let it become cooler," till the shadows of the hillocks become equal to their sizes. The Prophet Sallallahu Alaihe Wasallam added, "The severity of the heat is from the raging of Hell." Narrated Malik bin Huwairth Radiullahu Unho Two men came to the Prophet Sallallahu Alaihe Wasallam with the intention of a journey. The Prophet Sallallahu Alaihe Wasallam said, "When (both of) you set out, pronounce Adhan and then Iqama and the oldest of you should lead the prayer." Narrated Malik حد يث Hadith م ن في ح جهن م قالمال ك ب ن الح وي ر ث رض ي اهلل عن ه وسل م ي ر يدان الس فر أ رج لا ن ال ب ي ص اهلل علي ه وسل م إ ذا أن ت ما خرج ت ما فقال ال ب ي ص اهلل علي ه فا ذ نا ث م أق يما ث م ل يو م ك ما أك بر ك ما مال ك رض ي اهلل عن ه قال حد يث Radiullahu Unho Hadith 604 We came to the Prophet Sallallahu Alaihe Wasallam and stayed with him for twenty days and nights. We were all young and of about the same age. The Prophet Sallallahu Alaihe Wasallam was very kind and merciful. When he realized our longing for our families, he asked about our homes and the people there and we told him. Then he asked us to go back to our families and stay with them and teach them (the religion) and to order them to do good things. He also mentioned some other things which I have (remembered or) forgotten. The Prophet then added, "Pray as you have seen me praying and when it is the time for the prayer one of you should pronounce the Adhan and the oldest of you should lead the prayer. Narrated Nafi وسل م ونح ن ش ب ة علي ه أت نا إ لى ال ب ي ص اهلل م تقار ب ون فا قم نا ع ن ده ع ش ر ين يو م ا ول ي لة وکا ن وسل م رح يم ا رف يق ا فلم ا رس ول اهلل ص اهلل علي ه ظ ن أن ا قد اش ته نا أه لنا أو قد اش تق نا سا ل نا عم ن ترك نا بع دنا فا خ بر ناه قال ار ج وا إ لى أه ل يك م وه م وم ر وه م وذكر أش ياء فا ق يم وا ف يه م وعل م أح فظ ها أو لا أح فظ ها وصل وا كما رأي ت م وني أ صل ي فا ذا حض رت الص لا ة فل ي و ذ ن ل ك م أحد ك م ول يو م ك م أك بر ك م ع رض ي اهلل عن ه ناف قال حد يث Radiullahu Unho Hadith 605

11 ة Once in a cold night, Ibn Umar pronounced the Adhan for the prayer at Dajnan (the name of a mountain) and then said, "Pray at your homes", and informed us that Allah's Apostle Sallallahu Alaihe Wasallam used to tell the Muadhdin to pronounce Adhan and say, "Pray at your homes" at the end of the Adhan on a rainy or a very cold night during the journey." Narrated Aun bin Abi Juhaifa Radiullahu Unho My father said, "I saw Allah's Apostle Sallallahu Alaihe Wasallam at a place called Al-Abtah. Bilal came and informed him about the prayer and then came out with an Anza and planted it in front of at Al-Abtah and pronounced the Iqama." حد يث Hadith 606 Narrated Aun bin Abi Juhaifa Radiullahu Unho My father said, "I saw Bilal turning his face from side to side while pronouncing the Adhan for the prayer." 11 ع م ر في ل ي لة بار د ب ض ج نا ن ث م قال صل وا في أذ ن اب ن وسل م ر حال ك م فا خ بر نا أن رس ول اهلل ص اهلل علي ه و ذ ن ا ي و ذ ن ث م يق ول ع إ ث ر ه ألا صل وا في م کان يا م ر ة في الس ف ر الر حال في الل ي لة ال بار دة أو الم ط ير قال عو ن ب ن أبي ج حي فة رض ي اهلل عن ه أب ي ه عن ب الا ب ط ح ب ال ع ة وسل م قا ل رأي ت رس ول اهلل ص اهلل علي ه فجاء ه ب لا ل فا ذن ه ب الص لا ة ث م خر ج ب لا ل ص اهلل حد يث Hadith 607 Narrated 'Abdullah bin Abi Qatada Radiullahu Unho My father said, "While we were praying with the Prophet Sallallahu Alaihe Wasallam he heard the noise of some people. After the prayer he said, 'What is the matter?' They replied 'We were hurrying for the prayer.' He said, 'Do not make haste for the prayer, and whenever you come for حد يث Hadith 608 حتى ركزها بين يدي رس ول اهلل وسل م ب الا ب ط ح وأقام الص لا ة علي ه قال عو ن ب ن أبي ج حي فة رض ي اهلل عن ه عن أب ي هأن ه رأى ب لا لا ي و ذ ن فجعل ت أت ب ع فا ه هه نا وهه ناب الا ذان قال عب د اهلل رض ي اهلل ب ن أبي قتادة عن ه ه ن ص ل يمعال ب ي ص اهلل علي عن أب ي ه قا ل ب نما نح ن ع وسل م إ ذ سم جلبة ر جال فلم ا ص قا ل ما شا ن ك م قال وا اس تع جل نا إ لى الص لا ة قال فلا تف عل وا إ ذا أت ت م

12 the prayer, you should come with calmness, and pray whatever you get (with the people) and complete the rest which you have missed." Narrated Abu Huraira 12 الص لا ة فعلي ك م وا فاتك م فا تم ة ب الس ك ن أبي ه ري رة رض ي اهلل عن ه فص ل وا وما فما أد رك ت م قال حد يث Radiullahu Unho Hadith 609 said, "When you hear the Iqama, proceed to offer the prayer with calmness and solemnity and do not make haste. And pray whatever you are able to pray and complete whatever you have missed. Narrated Abdullah bin Abi Qatada Radiullahu Unho My father said. "Allah's Apostle Sallallahu Alaihe Wasallam said, If the Iqama is pronounced then do not stand for the prayer till you see me (in front of you)." Narrated 'Abdullah bin Abi حد يث Hadith 610 وسل م قا ل إ ذا سم ع ت م علي ه عن ال ب ي ص اهلل ة الا قامة فام ش وا إ لى الص لا ة وعلي ك م ب الس ك ن فص ل وا وما فاتك م وال وقار ولا ت س ر ع وا فما أد رك ت م وا فا تم قال عب د اهلل رض ي اهلل ب ن أبي قتادة عن ه عن أب ي ه قال رس ول اهلل أ ق يمت الص لا ة فلا تق وم وا حتى ترو ني رض ي اهلل عن ه وسل م ص اهلل علي ه قال عب د اهلل ب ن أ بي حد يث Radiullahu Unho Hadith 611 Qatada, My father said, "Allah's Apostle Sallallahu Alaihe Wasallam said, If the Iqama is pronounced, then do not stand for the prayer till you see me (in front of you) and do it calmly." Narrated Abu Huraira إ ذا ه قتادة ع ن أب ي ه قا ل قال رس ول اهلل ص اهلل علي وسل م إ ذا أ ق يمت الص لا ة فلا تق وم وا حتى ترو ني ة وعلي ك م ب الس ك ن أبي ه ري رة رض ي اهلل عن ه قال حد يث Radiullahu Unho Hadith 612 went out (of the mosque) when the Iqama had been pronounced and the rows straightened. The Prophet stood at his Musalla (praying place) and we waited for وسل م خرج وق د علي ه أن رس ول اهلل ص اهلل أ ق يمت الص لا ة وع د ل ت الص ف وف حتى إ ذا قام في

13 the Prophet to begin the prayer with Takbir. He left and asked us to remain in our places. We kept on standing till the Prophet returned and the water was trickling from his head for he had taken a bath (of Janaba). Narrated Abu Huraira ان ص رف قال م ص لا ه ان تظ ر نا أن ي كبر فمك نا ع هي ي نا حتى خرج إ ل نا ين ط وقد اغ سل أبي ه ري رة رض ي اهلل عن ه ع مکان ك م رأ س ه ماء ف قال حد يث Radiullahu Unho Hadith 613 Once iqama was pronounced and the people had straightened the rows, Allah's Apostle Sallallahu Alaihe Wasallam went forward (to lead the prayer) but he was Junub, so he said, "Remain in your places." And he went out, took a bath and returned with water trickling from his head. Then he led the prayer. Narrated Jabir bin 'Abdullah Radiullahu Unho On the day of Al-Khandaq (the trench), 'Umar bin Al-Khattab went to the Prophet Sallallahu Alaihe Wasallam and said, "O Allah's Apostle! By Allah, I could not pray (the 'Asr) till the sun had set." 'Umar told this to the Prophet Sallallahu Alaihe Wasallam at the time when a fasting person had done Iftar (taken his meals). The Prophet Sallallahu Alaihe Wasallam then went to Buthan and I was with him. He performed ablution and offered the 'Asr prayer after the sun had set and then the Maghrib prayer. Narrated Anas bin Malik حد يث Hadith 614 فخرج ص ف وفه م أ ق يمت الص لا ة فسو ى الن اس وسل م فتقد م وه و ج ن ب ث م رس ول اهلل ص اهلل علي ه فرجع فاغ سل ث م خرج ورأ س ه قال ع مکان ك م يق ط ر ماء فص ب ه م ب ن عب د اهلل قال جاب ر رض ي اهلل عن ه ب ن الخ ط ا ب وسل م جاء ه ع مر أن ال ب ي ص اهلل علي ه ن يو م الخ ن د ق فقال يا رس ول اهلل واهلل ما ك د ت أ تغ ر ب وذل ك بع دما أف ط ر أ صل ي حتى کادت الش م س علي ه وسل م واهلل ما الص اي م فقال ال ب ي ص اهلل صل ت ها ف ل ال ب ي ص اهلل علي ه وسل م إ لى ب ط حا ن وأنا معه فتوض ا ث م ص الش م س ث م ص بع دها الم غ ر ب أنس ب ن مال ك رض ي اهلل عن ه يع ني ال عص ر بع د ما غرب ت قال حد يث Radiullahu Unho Hadith

14 Once the Iqama was pronounced and the Prophet Sallallahu Alaihe Wasallam was talking to a man (in a low voice) in a corner of the mosque and he did not lead the prayer till (some of) the people had slept (dozed in a sitting posture). Narrated Anas bin Malik أ ق يمت الص لا ة وال ب ي وسل م ص اهلل علي ه ي ناج ي رج لا في جان ب الم س ج د فما قام إ لى الص لا ة حتى نام قو م ال رض ي اهلل عن ه قال أنس ب ن مال ك حد يث Radiullahu Unho Hadith 616 Once Iqama was pronounced, a man came to the Prophet Sallallahu Alaihe Wasallam and kept him busy even after the Iqama was called.

And this is because if he performs ablution and does it perfectly and then proceeds to the mosque with the sole intention of praying, then for every step he takes towards the mosque, he is upgraded one degree in reward and his one sin is taken off (crossed out) from his accounts (of deeds). When he offers his prayer, the angels keep on asking Allah's Blessings and Allah's forgiveness for him as long as he is (staying) at his Musalla. They say, 'O Allah! Bestow Your blessings upon him, be Merciful and kind to him.' And one is regarded in prayer as long as one is waiting for the prayer." Narrated Abu Salama bin Abdur Rahman Radiullahu Unho Abu Huraira said, "I heard Allah's Apostle Sallallahu Alaihe Wasallam saying, the reward of a prayer in congregation is twenty five times greater than that of a prayer offered by a person alone. The angels of the night and the angels of the day gather at the time of Fajr prayer."

I said to him, what makes you angry? He replied, By Allah! I do not find the followers of Muhammad Sallallahu Alaihe Wasallam doing those good things (which they used to do before) except the offering of congregational prayer. (This happened in the last days of Abu Ad-Darda during the rule of Uthman).

17 Prophet said, five are martyrs: One who dies of plague, one who dies of an abdominal disease, one who dies of drowning, one who is buried alive (and) dies and one who is killed in Allah's cause. (The Prophet further said, "If the people knew the reward for pronouncing the Adhan and for standing in the first row (in the congregational prayer) and found no other way to get it except by drawing lots they would do so, and if they knew the reward of offering the Zuhr prayer early (in its stated time), they would race for it and they knew the reward for Isha and Fajr prayers in congregation, they would attend them even if they were to crawl.

Mujahid said: Regarding Allah's Statement: "We record that which they have sent before (them), and their traces" (36.12). Their traces means 'their steps. And Anas said that the people of Bani Salima wanted to shift to a place near the Prophet Sallallahu Alaihe Wasallam but Allah's Apostle Sallallahu Alaihe Wasallam disliked the idea of leaving their houses uninhabited and said, "Don't you think that you will get the reward for your footprints."

18 Narrated Abu Huraira قال حد يث Radiullahu Unho Hadith 626 said, "No prayer is harder for the hypocrites than the Fajr and the Isha prayers and if they knew the reward for these prayers at their respective times, they would certainly present themselves (in the mosques) even if they had to crawl." The Prophet added, "Certainly I decided to order the Mu'adhdhin (call-maker) to pronounce Iqama and order a man to lead the prayer and then take a fire flame to burn all those who had not left their houses so far for the prayer along with their houses." Narrated Malik bin Huwairith Radiullahu Unho Prophet Sallallahu Alaihe Wasallam said (to two persons), "Whenever the prayer time becomes due, you should pronounce Adhan and then Iqama and the older of you should lead the prayer."

(These seven persons are) a just ruler, a youth who has been brought up in the worship of Allah (i.e. worships Allah sincerely from childhood), a man whose heart is attached to the mosques (i.e. to pray the compulsory prayers in the mosque in congregation), two persons who love each other only for Allah's sake and they meet and part in Allah's cause only, a man who refuses the call of a charming woman of noble birth for illicit intercourse with her and says: I am afraid of Allah, a man who gives charitable gifts so secretly that his left hand does not know what his right hand has given (i.e. nobody knows how much he has given in charity), and a person who remembers Allah in seclusion and his eyes are then flooded with tears."

He was told that Abu Bakr was a soft-hearted man and would not be able to lead the prayer in his place. The Prophet gave the same order again but he was given the same reply. He gave the order for the third time and said, 'You (women) are the companions of Joseph. Tell Abu Bakr to lead the prayer.' So Abu Bakr came out to lead the prayer. In the meantime the condition of the Prophet Sallallahu Alaihe Wasallam improved a bit and he came out with the help of two men one on each side.

Al-A'mash was asked, "Was the Prophet praying and Abu Bakr following him, and were the people following Abu Bakr in that prayer?" Al-A'mash replied in the affirmative with a nod of his head. Abu Muawiya said, "The Prophet was sitting on the left side of Abu Bakr who was praying while standing."

He came out with the help of two men and his legs were dragging on the ground. He was between Al-Abbas and another man." 'Ubaid Ullah said, "I told Ibn 'Abbas what 'Aisha had narrated and he said, 'Do you know who was the (second) man whose name 'Aisha did not mention'" I said, 'No.' Ibn 'Abbas said, 'He was Ali Ibn Abi Talib.'

22 Narrated Mahmuid bin Rabi' Al-Ansari Radiullahu Unho حد يث Hadith 636 'Itban bin Malik used to lead his people (tribe) in prayer and was a blind man, he said to Allah's Apostle Sallallahu Alaihe Wasallam, "O Allah's Apostle! At times it is dark and flood water is flowing (in the valley) and I am blind man, so please pray at a place in my house so that I can take it as a Musalla (praying place)." So Allah's Apostle Sallallahu Alaihe Wasallam went to his house and said, "Where do you like me to pray?" Itban pointed to a place in his house and Allah's Apostle Sallallahu Alaihe Wasallam offered the prayer there. Narrated 'Abdullah bin Al 22 قال مح م ود ب ن الر ب يع الا ن ص ار ي رض ي اهلل عن ه ب ن مال ك ع بان يو م قو مه وه و أع وأن ه قا ل کان ا ل وسل م يا رس ول اهلل إ اهلل ل رس ول اهلل ص علي ه تك ون الظ ل مة والس ي ل وأنا رج ل ض ر ير ال بص ر ه فص ل يا رس ول اهلل في ب تي مکان ا أتخ ذ ه م ص فجاء ن وسل م فقا ل أي ن تح ب أ رس ول اهلل ص اهلل علي ه أ صل ي فا شار إ لى مکان م ن ال ي ت فص ف يه رس ول اهلل ص اهلل علي ه وسل م رض ي اهلل عن ه قالعب داهلل ب ن الح ار ث حد يث Harith Radiullahu Unho Hadith 637 Ibn Abbas addressed us on a (rainy and) muddy day and when the Mu'adh-dhin said, "Come for the prayer" Ibn 'Abbas ordered him to say, "Pray in your homes." The people began to look at one another with surprise as if they did not like it. Ibn 'Abbas said, "It seems that you thought ill of it but no doubt it was done by one who was better than I (i.e. the Prophet). It (the prayer) is a strict order and I disliked to bring you out." Ibn 'Abbas narrated the same as above but he said, "I did not like you to make you sinful (in refraining from coming to the mosque) and to come (to the mosque) covered with mud up to the knees."

23 A cloud came and it rained till the roof started leaking and in those days the roof used to be of the branches of date-palms. Iqama was pronounced and I saw Allah's Apostles Sallallahu Alaihe Wasallam prostrating in water and mud and even I saw the mark of mud on his forehead.

He was a very fat man and he prepared a meal for the Prophet and invited him to his house. He spread out a mat for the Prophet Sallallahu Alaihe Wasallam, and washed one of its sides with water, and the Prophet prayed two Rakat on it." A man from the family of Al-Jaruid asked, "Did the Prophet Sallallahu Alaihe Wasallam used to pray the Duha (forenoon) prayer?" Anas said, "I did not see him praying the Duha prayer except on that day."

If food was served for Ibn Umar and Iqama was pronounced, he never came to the prayer till he finished it (i.e. food) in spite of the fact that he heard the recitation (of the Quran) by the Imam (in the prayer). Narrated Ibn Umar: The Prophet Sallallahu Alaihe Wasallam said, "If anyone of you is having his meals, he should not hurry up till he is satisfied even if the prayer has been started. Narrated Ja'far bin Amr bin Umaiya Radiullahu Unho حد يث Hadith 643 His father said, "I saw Allah's Apostle Sallallahu Alaihe Wasallam eating a piece of meat from the shoulder of a sheep and he was called for the prayer.

"I asked Abu Qilaba,"How did he use to pray?' "He replied, "(The Prophet used to pray) like this Sheikh of ours and the Sheikh used to sit for a while after the prostration, before getting up after the first Rak'a."

She repeated the same reply but he said, "Tell Abu Bakr to lead the people in prayer. You are the companions of Joseph." So the messenger went to Abu Bakr (with that order) and he led the people in prayer in the lifetime of the Prophet Sallallahu Alaihe Wasallam.

Hafsa did so but Allah's Apostle Sallallahu Alaihe Wasallam said, "Keep quiet! You are verily the companions of Joseph. Tell Abu Bakr to lead the people in the prayer. "Hafsa said to 'Aisha, "I never got anything good from you." Narrated Az-Zuhn 26 أبا بك ر م ن ال ب کاء ي س م ع الن اس إ ذا قام في مقام ك ل م فم ر ع م ر فل ي ص ل ل لن اس فقال ت عاي ش ة فق ل ت ف ص ة ق ولي ل ه إ ن أبا بك ر إ ذا قام في مقام ك ل م لح م ن ال ب کاء فم ر ع م ر فل ي ص ل ل لن ا س ي س م ع الن اس م ففعلت حف ص ة فقال رس ول اهلل ص اهلل علي ه وسل صواح ب ي وس ف م ر وا أبا بك ر مه إ ن ك ن لا ن تن فل ي ص ل ل لن اس فقال ت حف ص ة ل عاي شة ما ك ن ت لا ص يب م ن ك خير ا الز ه ر ي رض ي اهلل عن ه قال حد يث Radiullahu Unho Hadith 648 Anas bin Malik Al-Ansari, told me, "Abu Bakr used to lead the people in prayer during the fatal illness of the Prophet Sallallahu Alaihe Wasallam till it was Monday. When the people aligned (in rows) for the prayer, the Prophet Sallallahu Alaihe Wasallam lifted the curtain of his house and started looking at us and was standing at that time. His face was (glittering) like a page of the Qur'an and he smiled cheerfully. We were about to be put to trial for the pleasure of seeing the Prophet Sallallahu Alaihe Wasallam, Abu Bakr retreated to join the row as he thought that the Prophet Sallallahu Alaihe Wasallam would lead the prayer. The Prophet Sallallahu Alaihe Wasallam beckoned us to complete the prayer and he let the curtain fall. On the same day he died." ب ن مال ك الا ن ص ار ي أن أخ بر ني أنس ي ص ل ي له م في وجع ال ب ي أبا بك ر وسل م ص اهلل علي ه الا ث نين کا ن ال ذ ي ص ف وف في وه م يو م ت و في ف يه حتى إ ذا کان وسل م س تر علي ه الص لا ة فكشف ال ب ي ص اهلل الح ج رة ين ظ ر إ ل نا وه و قاي م کا ن وج هه ورقة يض حك فهمم نا أن نف تتن م ن ص حف ث م ت س م م وسل م فنكص أب و ال فرح ب ر ؤ ية ال ب ي ص اهلل علي ه بك ر ع عق ي ه ل يص ل الص ف وظ ن أن ال ب ي ص اهلل وسل م خار ج إ لى الص لا ة فا شار إ ل ناال ب ي ص علي ه تر فت و في وا صلا تك م وأر الس علي ه وسل م أن أتم اهلل
