أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو بَكْرٍ الْحَارِثِيُّ الْفَقِيهُ، أنا أَبُو مُحَمَّدِ بْنُ حَيَّانَ ثنا ابْنُ أَبِي عَاصِمٍ ثنا هِشَامُ بْنُ عَمَّارٍ ثنا الْوَلِيدُ بْنُ مُسْلِمٍ عَنْ مُعَاوِيَةَ بْنِ يَحْيَى عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ الْمُسَيِّبِ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: " لَا يُؤَذِّنُ إِلَّا مُتَوَضِّئٌ " هَكَذَا رَوَاهُ مُعَاوِيَةُ بْنُ يَحْيَى الصَّدَفِيُّ وَهُوَ ضَعِيفٌ وَالصَّحِيحُ رِوَايَةُ يُونُسَ بْنِ يَزِيدَ الْأَيْلِيِّ وَغَيْرِهِ عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ قَالَ: قَالَ أَبُو هُرَيْرَةَ: لَا يُنَادِي بِالصَّلَاةِ إِلَّا مُتَوَضِّئٌ.
(a) It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Only one who has ablution should give the adhan."
(b) It is narrated from al-Zuhri that Sayyiduna Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) said: Only one who has ablution should call the adhan for the prayer.
Mu'awiyah bin Yahya al-Sadafi, who narrated it in this way (as the Prophet's words), is da'if (weak); the correct version is the narration of Yunus bin Yazid al-Ayli and others from al-Zuhri, as the words of Abu Hurayrah.

أَخْبَرَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ الْحَارِثِ الْفَقِيهُ، أنا أَبُو مُحَمَّدِ بْنُ حَيَّانَ أَبُو الشَّيْخِ ثنا عَبْدَانُ ثنا هِلَالُ بْنُ بِشْرٍ ثنا عُمَيْرُ بْنُ عِمْرَانَ الْعَلَّافُ ثنا الْحَارِثُ بْنُ عُتْبَةَ عَنْ عَبْدِ الْجَبَّارِ بْنِ وَائِلٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، قَالَ: " حَقٌّ وَسُنَّةٌ مَسْنُونَةٌ أَنْ لَا يُؤَذِّنَ إِلَّا وَهُوَ طَاهِرٌ وَلَا يُؤَذِّنُ إِلَّا وَهُوَ قَائِمٌ " عَبْدُ الْجَبَّارِ بْنُ وَائِلٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ مُرْسَلٌ وَهُوَ قَوْلُ عَطَاءِ بْنِ أَبِي رَبَاحٍ وَقَالَ إِبْرَاهِيمُ النَّخَعِيُّ: كَانُوا لَا يَرَوْنَ بَأْسًا أَنْ يُؤَذِّنَ الرَّجُلُ عَلَى غَيْرِ وُضُوءٍ وَبِهِ قَالَ الْحَسَنُ الْبَصْرِيُّ وَقَتَادَةُ وَالْكَلَامُ فِيهِ يَرْجِعُ إِلَى اسْتِحْبَابِ الطَّهَارَةِ فِي الْأَذْكَارِ وَقَدْ مَضَى فِي كِتَابِ الطَّهَارَةِ.
(a) Abd al-Jabbar bin Wa'il (may Allah have mercy on him) narrates from his father (may Allah be pleased with him) that it is a right and the Sunnah that only one who has ablution should give the adhan, and standing. (b) Abd al-Jabbar bin Wa'il (may Allah have mercy on him) narrates from his father (may Allah be pleased with him) in a mursal form. This is the view of Ata' bin Abi Rabah (may Allah have mercy on him). Ibrahim al-Nakha'i (may Allah have mercy on him) said that they saw no harm in giving the adhan without ablution; this is also the view of al-Hasan al-Basri (may Allah have mercy on him) and Qatadah (may Allah have mercy on him). But giving the adhan with ablution is recommended (mustahabb); this has already passed in the Book of Purification (Kitab al-Taharah).
