Hadith 370

قَالَ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عِيسَى ، نا سَلَمَةُ يَعْنِي ابْنَ الْفَضْلِ ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ إِسْحَاقَ ، قَالَ : وَقَدْ كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ حِينَ قَدِمَهَا ، إِنَّمَا يَجْتَمِعُ النَّاسُ إِلَيْهِ لِلصَّلاةِ بِحِينِ مَوَاقِيتِهَا بِغَيْرِ دَعْوَةٍ ، فَهَمَّ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَنْ يَجْعَلَ بُوقًا كَبُوقِ الْيَهُودِ الَّذِي يَدْعُونَ بِهِ لِصَلَوَاتِهِمْ ، ثُمَّ كَرِهَهُ ، ثُمَّ أَمَرَ بِالنَّاقُوسِ ، فَنُحِتَ لَيَضْرِبَ بِهِ لِلْمُسْلِمِينَ إِلَى الصَّلاةِ ، فَبَيْنَمَا هُمْ عَلَى ذَلِكَ ، أُرِيَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ زَيْدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ رَبِّهِ ، أَخُو الْحَارِثِ بْنِ الْخَزْرَجِ النِّدَاءَ ، فَأَتَى رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، فَقَالَ لَهُ : يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ، إِنَّهُ طَافَ بِي هَذِهِ اللَّيْلَةَ طَائِفٌ مَرَّ بِي رَجُلٌ عَلَيْهِ ثَوْبَانِ أَخْضَرَانِ يَحْمِلُ نَاقُوسًا فِي يَدِهِ ، فَقُلْتُ : يَا عَبْدَ اللَّهِ ، أَتَبِيعُ هَذَا النَّاقُوسَ ؟ فَقَالَ : وَمَا تَصْنَعُ بِهِ ؟ قُلْتُ : نَدْعُو بِهِ إِلَى الصَّلاةِ ، فَقَالَ : أَلا أَدُلُّكَ عَلَى خَيْرٍ مِنْ ذَلِكَ ؟ قُلْتُ : وَمَا هُوَ ؟ قَالَ : " تَقُولُ : اللَّهُ أَكْبَرُ ، اللَّهُ أَكْبَرُ ، اللَّهُ أَكْبَرُ ، اللَّهُ أَكْبَرُ ، أَشْهَدُ أَنْ لا إِلَهَ إِلا اللَّهُ ، أَشْهَدُ أَنْ لا إِلَهَ إِلا اللَّهُ ، أَشْهَدُ أَنَّ مُحَمَّدًا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ، أَشْهَدُ أَنَّ مُحَمَّدًا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ، حَيَّ عَلَى الصَّلاةِ ، حَيَّ عَلَى الصَّلاةِ ، حَيَّ عَلَى الْفَلاحِ ، حَيَّ عَلَى الْفَلاحِ ، اللَّهُ أَكْبَرُ ، اللَّهُ أَكْبَرُ ، لا إِلَهَ إِلا اللَّهُ ، ثُمَّ اسْتَأْخَرَ غَيْرَ كَثِيرٍ ، ثُمَّ قَالَ : مِثْلَ مَا قَالَ : وَجَعَلَهَا وِتْرًا ، إِلا قَدْ قَامَتِ الصَّلاةُ ، قَدْ قَامَتِ الصَّلاةُ ، اللَّهُ أَكْبَرُ ، اللَّهُ أَكْبَرُ ، لا إِلَهَ إِلا اللَّهُ " ، فَلَمَّا خَبَّرْتُهَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، قَالَ : إِنَّهَا لَرُؤْيَا حَقٌ إِنْ شَاءَ اللَّهُ ، فَقُمْ مَعَ بِلالٍ فَأَلْقِهَا عَلَيْهِ فَإِنَّهُ أَنْدَى صَوْتًا مِنْكَ ، فَلَمَّا أَذَّنَ بِلالٌ ، سَمِعَ بِهَا عُمَرُ بْنُ الْخَطَّابِ وَهُوَ فِي بَيْتِهِ ، فَخَرَجَ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَهُوَ يَجُرُّ رِدَاءَهُ ، وَهُوَ يَقُولُ : يَا نَبِيَّ اللَّهِ ، وَالَّذِي بَعَثَكَ بِالْحَقِّ لَقَدْ رَأَيْتُ مِثْلَ مَا رَأَى ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " فَلِلَّهِ الْحَمْدُ ، فَذَاكَ أَثْبُتُ "
Hazrat Muhammad bin Ishaq (may Allah have mercy on him) narrates that when the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) arrived in Madinah, people would gather around him at the times of prayer without any call to prayer. Then the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) intended to have a horn made similar to the horn of the Jews, by which they call for their prayers. Then he disliked this. Then the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) ordered a bell to be made, so it was carved out so that it could be rung to call the Muslims to prayer. The Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) and his noble companions were engaged in this consultation when Abdullah bin Zaid bin Abd Rabbih, the brother of Harith bin Khazraj, was shown the Adhan (call to prayer) in a dream. So he came to the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) and said, "O Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him), last night I saw a man in a dream. A man passed by me, he was wearing two green garments and was carrying a bell in his hand. So I said, 'O servant of Allah, will you sell this bell?' He said, 'What will you do with it?' I said, 'We will call people to prayer with it.' He said, 'Shall I not tell you something better than this?' I said, 'What is it?' He said, 'You should say: « اللهُ أَكْبَرُ، اللهُ أَكْبَرُ ، اللهُ أَكْبَرُ، اللهُ أَكْبَرُ » "Allah is the Greatest, Allah is the Greatest, Allah is the Greatest, Allah is the Greatest" « أَشْهَدُ أَنْ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللهُ ، أَشْهَدُ أَنْ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللهُ » "I bear witness that there is no deity worthy of worship except Allah, I bear witness that there is no deity worthy of worship except Allah" « أَشْهَدُ أَنْ مُحَمَّدٌ رَسُولُ ٱللَّٰه ، أَشْهَدُ أَنْ مُحَمَّدٌ رَسُولُ ٱللَّٰه » "I bear witness that Muhammad (peace be upon him) is the Messenger of Allah, I bear witness that Muhammad (peace be upon him) is the Messenger of Allah" « حَيَّ عَلَى الصَّلَاةِ، حَيَّ عَلَى الصَّلَاةِ » "Come to prayer, come to prayer" « حَيَّ عَلَى الْفَلَاحِ، حَيَّ عَلَى الْفَلَاحِ » "Come to success, come to success" « اللهُ أَكْبَرُ، اللهُ أَكْبَرُ » "Allah is the Greatest, Allah is the Greatest" « لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللهُ » "There is no true deity except Allah."' Then he moved back a little and then said the same as he had said before. And he said those words singly except for "Qad qamatis salah", which he said (twice): « قَد قَامَتِ الصَّلَاةُ، قَد قَامَتِ الصَّلَاةُ » "The prayer has been established, the prayer has been established" « اللهُ أَكْبَرُ، اللهُ أَكْبَرُ، لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللهُ » "Allah is the Greatest, Allah is the Greatest, there is no true deity except Allah." When I informed the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) of this, he said, "If Allah wills, this dream is true." Stand with Bilal (may Allah be pleased with him) and teach him these words, for he has a louder voice than you." Then when Bilal (may Allah be pleased with him) gave the Adhan with these words, Umar bin Khattab (may Allah be pleased with him) heard it while he was in his house. He came out dragging his cloak towards the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) and said, "O Prophet of Allah, by the One who sent you with the truth, I have also seen the same (dream) as he has seen." So the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) said, "All praise is due to Allah, and this (testimony) has made the matter stronger and clearer."
