حَدَّثَنَا مُوسَی بْنُ إِسْمَعِيلَ وَدَاوُدُ بْنُ شَبِيبٍ الْمَعْنَی قَالَا حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادٌ عَنْ أَيُّوبَ عَنْ نَافِعٍ عَنْ ابْنِ عُمَرَ أَنَّ بِلَالًا أَذَّنَ قَبْلَ طُلُوعِ الْفَجْرِ فَأَمَرَهُ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَنْ يَرْجِعَ فَيُنَادِيَ أَلَا إِنَّ الْعَبْدَ قَدْ نَامَ أَلَا إِنَّ الْعَبْدَ قَدْ نَامَ زَادَ مُوسَی فَرَجَعَ فَنَادَی أَلَا إِنَّ الْعَبْدَ قَدْ نَامَ قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُد وَهَذَا الْحَدِيثُ لَمْ يَرْوِهِ عَنْ أَيُّوبَ إِلَّا حَمَّادُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ
سنن ابودوٗد · Hadith 532
Narrated Abdullah ibn Umar: Bilal made a call to prayer before the break of dawn; the Prophet ﷺ, therefore, commanded him to return and make a call: Lo! the servant of Allah (i. e. I) had slept (hence this mistake). The version of Musa has the addition: He returned and made a call: Lo! the servant of Allah had slept. Abu Dawud said: This tradition has been narrated by al-Darawardi from Ubaid Allah on the authority of Ibn Umar saying: There was a muadhdhin of Umar, named Masud. He then narrated the rest of the tradition. This version is more correct than that one.
