بَابُ فِي الْفَصْلِ بَيْنَ الْأَذَانِ وَالْإِقَامَةِ وَمَنْ أَذَّنَ فَهُوَ يُقِيمُChapter on the Interval Between Adhan and Iqamah and That Whoever Calls the Adhan Should Also Give the Iqamah
Hadith 1311
اُردوEn
عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ زَيْدٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ أَنَّهُ أُرِيَ الْأَذَانَ قَالَ: فَجِئْتُ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَأَخْبَرْتُهُ فَقَالَ: ((أَلْقِهِ عَلَى بِلَالٍ)) فَأَلْقَيْتُهُ فَأَذَّنَ، قَالَ: فَأَرَادَ أَنْ يُقِيمَ، فَقُلْتُ: يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ! أَنَا رَأَيْتُ، أُرِيدُ أَنْ أُقِيمَ، قَالَ: ((فَأَقِمْ أَنْتَ)) فَأَقَامَ هُوَ وَأَذَّنَ بِلَالٌ
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Zaid (may Allah be pleased with him) that he saw the dream of the Adhan. He says: I came and informed the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), but he said: Teach these words to Bilal. So I taught them to Sayyiduna Bilal (may Allah be pleased with him), then he gave the Adhan. When Sayyiduna Bilal (may Allah be pleased with him) intended to say the Iqamah, I said: O Messenger of Allah! I saw the dream, so I wish to say the Iqamah myself. Upon hearing this, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: (Alright) you say the Iqamah. Thus, Sayyiduna Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with him) said the Iqamah, while Sayyiduna Bilal (may Allah be pleased with him) had given the Adhan.
Brief Explanation
Benefits: … It is the muezzin himself who should pronounce the iqamah; this was the practice prevalent during the blessed era of the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, and through this, order and discipline are maintained. There is no doubt that another person may also pronounce the iqamah. The verbal hadiths in which the iqamah is restricted to the muezzin or in which permission is given for someone else to pronounce it are weak.
