الأَذَانُ مَثْنَى مَثْنَى

The adhan is in pairs

لَمَّا كَثُرَ النَّاسُ قَالَ ـ ذَكَرُوا ـ أَنْ يَعْلَمُوا وَقْتَ الصَّلاَةِ بِشَىْءٍ يَعْرِفُونَهُ، فَذَكَرُوا أَنْ يُورُوا نَارًا أَوْ يَضْرِبُوا نَاقُوسًا، فَأُمِرَ بِلاَلٌ أَنْ يَشْفَعَ الأَذَانَ وَأَنْ يُوتِرَ الإِقَامَةَ.

حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدٌ، قَالَ أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ الْوَهَّابِ، قَالَ أَخْبَرَنَا خَالِدٌ الْحَذَّاءُ، عَنْ أَبِي قِلاَبَةَ، عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ، قَالَ

Translation

Anas ibn Malik reported: When the people became many – he said – they mentioned that the time of the prayer should be made known by something they would recognize. They mentioned lighting a fire or striking a bell (naqus). Then Bilal was commanded to say the adhan in pairs and the iqamah singly.

Anas ibn Malik berichtete: Als die Leute zahlreich wurden – sagte er –, erwähnten sie, dass man die Zeit des Gebets durch etwas bekannt machen sollte, das sie kennen. Da erwähnten sie, ein Feuer zu entzünden oder eine Glocke (Naqus) zu schlagen. Da wurde Bilal befohlen, den Gebetsruf (Adhan) paarweise und die Iqama einzeln zu sprechen.
