Narrated Jabir bin Samurah (RA): I prayed with the Prophet ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) the two 'Eids, not only once or twice, without an Adhan or an Iqamah. [Reported by Muslim] . A similar narration is in al-Bukhari and Muslim narrated by 'Abdullah bin 'Abbas (RA) and others.

Narrated Abu Qatadah (RA) in a long Hadith about their (Sahaba) sleeping late past the time of Salat (prayer): Then Bilal proclaimed the Adhan and the Prophet ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) offered the prayer (while leading the Companions) as he used to do every day. [Reported by Muslim] . Muslim also reported from Jabir (RA): The Prophet ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) came to al-Muzdalifah and offered at it both the Maghrib and 'Isha prayers with one Adhan and two Iqamah. Muslim also reported from Ibn 'Umar (RA): The Prophet ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) combined the Maghrib and 'Isha prayers with one Iqamah. Abu Dawud added the words: "for each prayer". And in another narration he reported: The Adhan was not announced for any one of them.

Narrated Ibn 'Umar and 'Aishah (RA): Allah's Messenger ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) said: "Bilal calls for prayer when it is still night, so eat and drink till Ibn Umm Maktum calls for prayer." And he (Ibn Umm Maktum) was a blind man who did not call for a prayer until he was told: "It is morning time, it is morning time." [Agreed upon] . There is an Idraj in its last part.

Narrated Ibn 'Umar (RA): Bilal called for prayer before dawn and the Prophet ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) told him to return and announce: "Lo! the slave of Allah (i.e. Bilal) had slept (hence this mistake)". [Reported by Abu Dawud, and graded as Da'if (weak)] .

Narrated Abu Sa'id al-Khudri (RA): Allah's Messenger ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) said: "When you hear the Adhan repeat what the Mu'adhdhin (the call-maker) says." [Agreed upon] . And al-Bukhari has reported similarly in a narration by Mu'awiyah (RA). And Muslim reported a narration by 'Umar (RA) regarding the virtue of repeating what the Mu'adhdhin pronounces word by word except when the Mu'adhdhin says: "Haiya 'alas-Salah, Haiya 'alal-Falah (Come to the prayer and come to the success)", one should say: "La hawla wa la quwwata illa billah [there is no might and no power except with (the help of) Allah] ."

Narrated 'Uthman bin Abul-'Aas (RA): He said, "O Messenger of Allah, appointment as the Imam (leader) of my people (in prayers). He ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) said: "You are their Imam, but you should follow (observe the strength of) the weakest among them and appoint a Mu'adhdhin who does not charge for the call of Adhan." [Reported by al-Khamsah, at-Tirmidhi graded it Hasan (good) and al-Hakim graded it Sahih (authentic)] .

Narrated Malik bin al-Huwairith (RA): The Prophet ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) said to us, "When the time of Salat (prayer) comes, one of you should announce the Adhan." [Reported by as-Sab'ah] .

Narrated Jabir (RA): Allah's Messenger ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) said to Bilal, "When you announce the Adhan, utter deliberately and when you pronounce the Iqamah utter quickly, and leave between your Adhan and your Iqamah time for one who is eating to finish his food." [Reported by at-Tirmidhi who graded it Da'if (weak)] . He also reported from Abu Hurairah (RA): The Prophet ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) said: "No one should announce Adhan except the one who has performed the ablution". [Reported by at-Tirmidhi who graded it Da'if (weak)] . So the narration is weak whether Marfu' [reaching back to the Prophet ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم )] or Mawquf (saying of a Companion). He also reported from Ziyad bin al-Harith (RA): Allah's Messenger ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) said: "The one who announces the Adhan should also pronounce the Iqamah." [Reported by at-Tirmidhi who graded it Da'if (weak)] . Narrated 'Abdullah bin Zaid in another narration of the Hadith reported by Abu Dawud: I saw it, i.e. the Adhan (in a vision) and I wanted to announce it. Allah's Messenger ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) said: "You pronounce the Iqamah." [This Hadith is also Da'if (weak)] .

Narrated Abu Hurairah (RA): Allah's Messenger ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) said: "The Mu'adhdhin has more right to [determine the time to] announce the Adhan and the Imam has more right to [determine when to] pronounce the Iqamah." [Reported by Ibn 'Adi who graded it Da'if (weak)] . al-Baihaqi has reported a similar narration from the saying of 'Ali (RA).

Narrated Anas bin Malik (RA): Allah's Messenger ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) said: "A supplication made between the Adhan and Iqamah is not rejected." [Reported by an-Nasa'i and Ibn Khuzaimah graded it Sahih (authentic)] .
