حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، حَدَّثَنَا خَالِدٌ، عَنْ أَبِي قِلَابَةَ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ

قَالَ أُمِرَ بِلَالٌ أَنْ يَشْفَعَ، الأَذَانَ، وَأَنْ يُوتِرَ الإِقَامَةَ. قَالَ إِسْمَاعِيلُ فَذَكَرْتُ لأَيُّوبَ فَقَالَ إِلاَّ الإِقَامَةَ

Anas said, “Bilal was ordered to pronounce the wording of Adhan twice and of Iqama once only.” The sub narrator Ismail said, “I mentioned that to Aiyub and he added (to that), ‘Except Iqama (i.e. Qad-qamat-is-salat which should be said twice).’”

আনাস (রাযি.) হতে বর্ণিত। তিনি বলেন, বিলাল (রাযি.)-কে আযানের বাক্যগুলো দু’ দু’বার এবং ইক্বামাত(ইকামত/একামত)ের বাক্যগুলো বেজোড় করে বলার নির্দেশ দেয়া হয়। ইসমাঈল (রহ.) বলেন, আমি এ হাদীস আইয়ূবের নিকট বর্ণনা করলে তিনি বলেন, তবে ‘কাদ্কামাতিস্ সালাতু’ ছাড়া। (৬০৩)

ہم سے علی بن عبداللہ بن مدینی نے بیان کیا، کہا کہ ہم سے اسماعیل بن ابراہیم بن علیہ نے بیان کیا، کہا ہم سے خالد حذاء نے ابوقلابہ سے بیان کیا، انہوں نے انس رضی اللہ عنہ سے کہ بلال رضی اللہ عنہ کو حکم دیا گیا کہ اذان کے کلمات دو دو دفعہ کہیں اور تکبیر میں یہی کلمات ایک ایک دفعہ۔

اسماعیل نے بتایا کہ میں نے ایوب سختیانی سے اس حدیث کا ذکر کیا تو انہوں نے کہا مگر لفظ «قد قامت الصلوة» دو ہی دفعہ کہا جائے گا۔

Telah menceritakan kepada kami ['Ali bin 'Abdullah] telah menceritakan kepada kami [Isma'il bin Ibrahim] telah menceritakan kepada kami [Khalid] dari [Abu Qilabah] dari [Anas bin Malik] berkata, "Bilal diperintahkan untuk mengumandangkan kalimat adzan dengan genap (dua kali dua kali) dan mengganjilkan iqamat." [Isma'il] berkata, "Aku sampaikan masalah ini kepada [Ayyub], lalu ia berkata, 'Kecuali kalimat iqamat 'Qad qaamatish shalah (shalat telah dikumandangkan)

Enes bin Malik (r.a.)'ten şöyle nakledilmiştir: "Bilal, ezanı çifter çifter kameti de teker teker okumakla emrolundu. îsmaili şöyle demiştir: "Bu meseleyi Eyyub'a anlattım. O da (Ked kametu's-selat) kısmı hariç dedi

What it means

The Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) commanded his Muezzin, Bilāl (may Allah be pleased with him), to pronounce the Adhān in pairs, because it is meant to draw the attention of those who are absent from the mosque, so its phrases are to be said twice. This excludes the Takbīr in the beginning, as it was authentically reported as being said four times, and the word of Tawḥīd (lā ilāha illā Allah) at the end, as it is authentically reported as being said once.

The Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) also commanded Bilāl to pronounce the Iqāmah in singles, because it is meant to draw the attention of those in attendance. He was commanded to say each sentence once, except for the Takbīr and "qad qāmat aṣ-ṣalāh" (the prayer has started), as it was authentically reported as being doubled.
