أَخْبَرَنَا سُوَيْدُ بْنُ نَصْرٍ أَنْبَأَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ الْمُبَارَکِ عَنْ مُجَمِّعِ بْنِ يَحْيَی الْأَنْصَارِيِّ قَالَ کُنْتُ جَالِسًا عِنْدَ أَبِي أُمَامَةَ بْنِ سَهْلِ بْنِ حُنَيْفٍ فَأَذَّنَ الْمُؤَذِّنُ فَقَالَ اللَّهُ أَکْبَرُ اللَّهُ أَکْبَرُ فَکَبَّرَ اثْنَتَيْنِ فَقَالَ أَشْهَدُ أَنْ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ فَتَشَهَّدَ اثْنَتَيْنِ فَقَالَ أَشْهَدُ أَنَّ مُحَمَّدًا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ فَتَشَهَّدَ اثْنَتَيْنِ ثُمَّ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي هَکَذَا مُعَاوِيَةُ بْنُ أَبِي سُفْيَانَ عَنْ قَوْلِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ
سنن نسائی · Hadith 679
It was narrated that Mujammi’ bin Yal Al-An said: “I was Sitting with Abu Umamah bin Sahl bin Hunaif when the Muadhdhin called the Adhan. He said: ‘Allahu akbar, Allahu Akbar (Allah is the Greatest, Allah is the Greatest),’ and he (also) pronounced the Takbir twice. Then he said: ‘Ashhadu an la ilaha ill-Allah (I bear witness that there is none worthy of worship except Allah),’ and he also sent the testimony twice. Then he said: ‘Ashhadu anna Muhammadan Rasal Allah (I bear witness that Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم),’ and he (also) sent the testimony twice. Then he said: ‘This is what Muawiyah bin Abi Sufyan told me, narrating from statement of the Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم .” (Sahih)
