حدثنا عباد بن موسى الختلي، وزياد بن ايوب، وحديث عباد اتم، قالا: حدثنا هشيم، عن ابي بشر، قال زياد، اخبرنا ابو بشر، عن ابي عمير بن انس، عن عمومة له من الانصار، قال:" اهتم النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم للصلاة كيف يجمع الناس لها، فقيل له: انصب راية عند حضور الصلاة فإذا راوها آذن بعضهم بعضا، فلم يعجبه ذلك، قال: فذكر له القنع يعني الشبور، وقال زياد: شبور اليهود فلم يعجبه ذلك، وقال: هو من امر اليهود، قال: فذكر له الناقوس، فقال: هو من امر النصارى، فانصرف عبد الله بن زيد بن عبد ربه وهو مهتم لهم رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم، فاري الاذان في منامه، قال: فغدا على رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم فاخبره، فقال له: يا رسول الله، إني لبين نائم ويقظان إذ اتاني آت فاراني الاذان، قال: وكان عمر بن الخطاب رضي الله عنه قد رآه قبل ذلك فكتمه عشرين يوما، قال: ثم اخبر النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم، فقال له: ما منعك ان تخبرني؟ فقال: سبقني عبد الله بن زيد فاستحييت، فقال رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم: يا بلال، قم فانظر ما يامرك به عبد الله بن زيد فافعله، قال: فاذن بلال، قال ابو بشر: فاخبرني ابو عمير، ان الانصار تزعم ان عبد الله بن زيد لولا انه كان يومئذ مريضا لجعله رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم مؤذنا".
Narrated Abu Umayr ibn Anas: Abu Umayr reported on the authority of his uncle who was from the Ansar (the helpers of the Prophet): The Prophet صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم was anxious as to how to gather the people for prayer. The people told him: Hoist a flag at the time of prayer; when they see it, they will inform one another. But he (the Prophet) did not like it. Then someone mentioned to him the horn. Ziyad said: A horn of the Jews. He (the Prophet) did not like it. He said: This is the matter of the Jews. Then they mentioned to him the bell of the Christians. He said: This is the matter of the Christians. Abdullah ibn Zayd returned anxiously from there because of the anxiety of the Messenger صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم . He was then taught the call to prayer in his dream. Next day he came to the Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم and informed him about it. He said: Messenger of Allah, I was between sleep and wakefulness; all of a sudden a newcomer came (to me) and taught me the call to prayer. Umar ibn al-Khattab had also seen it in his dream before, but he kept it hidden for twenty days. The Prophet صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم said to me (Umar): What did prevent you from saying it to me? He said: Abdullah ibn Zayd had already told you about it before me: hence I was ashamed. Then the Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم said: Bilal, stand up, see what Abdullah ibn Zayd tells you (to do), then do it. Bilal then called them to prayer. Abu Bishr reported on the authority of Abu Umayr: The Ansar thought that if Abdullah ibn Zayd had not been ill on that day, the Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم would have made him muadhdhin.
