وَأَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو الْحُسَيْنِ بْنُ بِشْرَانَ ثنا أَبُو عَمْرِو بْنُ السَّمَّاكِ ثنا حَنْبَلُ بْنُ إِسْحَاقَ ثنا إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ أَبِي اللَّيْثِ ثنا أَبُو إِسْمَاعِيلَ الْمُؤَدِّبُ عَنْ إِسْمَاعِيلَ بْنِ أَبِي خَالِدٍ عَنْ قَيْسِ بْنِ أَبِي حَازِمٍ قَالَ: قَدِمْنَا عَلَى عُمَرَ بْنِ الْخَطَّابِ فَسَأَلَ: " مَنْ مُؤَذِّنُكُمْ فَقُلْنَا عَبِيدُنَا وَمَوَالِينَا فَقَالَ بِيَدِهِ هَكَذَا يُقَلِّبُهَا عَبِيدُنَا وَمَوَالِينَا: إِنَّ ذَلِكُمْ بِكُمْ لَنَقْصٌ شَدِيدٌ لَوْ أَطَقْتُ الْأَذَانَ مَعَ الْخِلَافَةِ لَأَذَّنْتُ ".
It is narrated from Qays bin Abi Hazim that he said: We came to Sayyiduna Umar bin al-Khattab (may Allah be pleased with him), and he said: Who are your muezzins? We said: Our slaves and our freed slaves (mawali). He gestured with his hand like this, that is, turning it over: Our slaves and our mawali! This is a great deficiency in you. If I had the strength to give the adhan along with being caliph, I would give the adhan.
