حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بَشَّارٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ ، سَمِعْتُ أَبَا جَعْفَرٍ يُحَدِّثُ ، عَنْ مُسْلِمٍ أَبِي الْمُثَنَّى ، عَنْ ابْنِ عُمَرَ ، قَالَ : " إِنَّمَا كَانَ الْأَذَانُ عَلَى عَهْدِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مَرَّتَيْنِ مَرَّتَيْنِ ، وَالْإِقَامَةُ مَرَّةً مَرَّةً ، غَيْرَ أَنَّهُ ، يَقُولُ : قَدْ قَامَتِ الصَّلَاةُ ، قَدْ قَامَتِ الصَّلَاةُ ، فَإِذَا سَمِعْنَا الْإِقَامَةَ تَوَضَّأْنَا ثُمَّ خَرَجْنَا إِلَى الصَّلَاةِ " ، قَالَ شُعْبَةُ : لَمْ أَسْمَعْ مِنْ أَبِي جَعْفَرٍ غَيْرَ هَذَا الْحَدِيثِ .
Narrated Abdullah ibn Umar: The words of adhan were pronounced from the time of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ twice in pairs (i. e. four times) each, and the words of iqamah were pronounced once in pairs (twice each), except that the phrase "The time for prayer has come" would be pronounced twice. When we heard iqamah, we would perform ablution, and go out for prayer. Shubah said: I did not hear Abu Jafar narrating any other tradition except this one.

510. Commentary:
The noble Companions (radi Allahu anhum) would generally arrive at the mosque before the iqamah and wait for the prayer. However, if by chance someone was delayed, upon hearing the iqamah, he would quickly perform ablution (wudu) and come for the prayer.

Hafiz Muhammad Ameen
669. Commentary: This would have been an occasional occurrence, for example: due to eating or sleep; otherwise, the noble Companions (radi Allahu anhum) were usually present in the mosque beforehand. (For the discussion on the iqamah, see Hadith: 629 and the introduction of this very book.)
