Chapter 10 · Call to Prayers (Adhaan)وُجُوبِ صَلاَةِ الْجَمَاعَةِ
The obligation of praying in congregation
أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ " وَالَّذِي نَفْسِي بِيَدِهِ لَقَدْ هَمَمْتُ أَنْ آمُرَ بِحَطَبٍ فَيُحْطَبَ، ثُمَّ آمُرَ بِالصَّلاَةِ فَيُؤَذَّنَ لَهَا، ثُمَّ آمُرَ رَجُلاً فَيَؤُمَّ النَّاسَ، ثُمَّ أُخَالِفَ إِلَى رِجَالٍ فَأُحَرِّقَ عَلَيْهِمْ بُيُوتَهُمْ، وَالَّذِي نَفْسِي بِيَدِهِ لَوْ يَعْلَمُ أَحَدُهُمْ أَنَّهُ يَجِدُ عَرْقًا سَمِينًا أَوْ مِرْمَاتَيْنِ حَسَنَتَيْنِ لَشَهِدَ الْعِشَاءَ ".

حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ يُوسُفَ، قَالَ أَخْبَرَنَا مَالِكٌ، عَنْ أَبِي الزِّنَادِ، عَنِ الأَعْرَجِ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ،
Translation
Abu Hurairah reported that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, “By the One in Whose hand is my soul, I was about to order firewood to be gathered, then to order the prayer and have the adhan called for it, then to order a man to lead the people in prayer, and then to go to men (who stay away) and burn their houses down upon them. By the One in Whose hand is my soul, if one of them knew that he would find a meaty bone or two good trotters, he would attend the Isha prayer.”
Translator’s note: The Arabic word for “trotters” (mirmat) is also explained as (target) arrows.

Abu Huraira berichtete, dass der Gesandte Allahs ﷺ sagte: „Bei Dem, in Dessen Hand meine Seele ist, ich hatte schon vor, anzuordnen, dass Brennholz gesammelt wird, dann das Gebet anzuordnen, sodass zu ihm gerufen wird, dann einem Mann zu befehlen, den Leuten vorzubeten, und dann zu Männern (, die fernbleiben,) zu gehen und ihre Häuser über ihnen zu verbrennen. Bei Dem, in Dessen Hand meine Seele ist, wüsste einer von ihnen, dass er einen fleischigen Knochen oder zwei gute Klauenstücke fände, so würde er am Nachtgebet teilnehmen.“
Translator’s note: Das arabische Wort für „Klauenstücke“ (Mirmat) wird auch als (Wurf-)Pfeile gedeutet.

Ebû Hüreyre (r.a.), Resûlullah'ın ﷺ şöyle buyurduğunu rivayet etti: “Canım elinde olana yemin ederim ki odun toplanmasını emretmeyi, sonra namazı emredip onun için ezan okunmasını, sonra bir adama emredip insanlara imam olmasını, sonra da (cemaate gelmeyen) adamların yanına gidip evlerini başlarına yakmayı düşündüm. Canım elinde olana yemin ederim ki onlardan biri, etli bir kemik ya da iki güzel paça bulacağını bilse, yatsı namazına mutlaka gelirdi.”
Translator’s note: “Paça” diye çevrilen kelime (mirmât) ok olarak da açıklanmıştır.

قَالَ النَّبِيُّ صلى الله عليه وسلم " لَيْسَ صَلاَةٌ أَثْقَلَ عَلَى الْمُنَافِقِينَ مِنَ الْفَجْرِ وَالْعِشَاءِ، وَلَوْ يَعْلَمُونَ مَا فِيهِمَا لأَتَوْهُمَا وَلَوْ حَبْوًا، لَقَدْ هَمَمْتُ أَنْ آمُرَ الْمُؤَذِّنَ فَيُقِيمَ، ثُمَّ آمُرَ رَجُلاً يَؤُمُّ النَّاسَ، ثُمَّ آخُذَ شُعَلاً مِنْ نَارٍ فَأُحَرِّقَ عَلَى مَنْ لاَ يَخْرُجُ إِلَى الصَّلاَةِ بَعْدُ ".
Abu Hurairah reported that the Prophet ﷺ said, “No prayer is heavier upon the hypocrites than the Fajr prayer and the Isha prayer. If they knew what is in them, they would come to them even if crawling. I was about to order the caller to …
