وحَدَّثَنِي عَلِيُّ بْنُ حُجْرٍ السَّعْدِيُّ ، حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيل ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الْحَمِيدِ صَاحِبِ الزِّيَادِيِّ ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ الْحَارِثِ ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَبَّاسٍ ، " أَنَّهُ قَالَ لِمُؤَذِّنِهِ فِي يَوْمٍ مَطِيرٍ : إِذَا قُلْتَ : أَشْهَدُ أَنْ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ ، أَشْهَدُ أَنَّ مُحَمَّدًا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ، فَلَا تَقُلْ : حَيَّ عَلَى الصَّلَاةِ ، قُلْ : صَلُّوا فِي بُيُوتِكُمْ ، قَالَ : فَكَأَنَّ النَّاسَ اسْتَنْكَرُوا ذَاكَ ، فَقَالَ : أَتَعْجَبُونَ مِنْ ذَا ، قَدْ فَعَلَ ذَا مَنْ هُوَ خَيْرٌ مِنِّي ، إِنَّ الْجُمُعَةَ عَزْمَةٌ ، وَإِنِّي كَرِهْتُ أَنْ أُخْرِجَكُمْ فَتَمْشُوا فِي الطِّينِ ، وَالدَّحْضِ " .
'Abdullah bin 'Abbas reported that he said to the Mu'adhdhin on a rainy day: When you have announced " I testify that there is no god but Allah; I testify that Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah," do not say: "Come to the prayer," but make this announcement: "Say prayer in your houses." He (the narrator) said that the people disapproved of it. Ibn 'Abbas said: Are you astonished at it? He (the Holy Prophet), who is better than I, did it. Jumu'a prayer is no doubt obligatory, but I do not like that I should (force you) to come out and walk in mud and slippery ground.
