Revival of Sunnah - #3 The Sunnahs of Adhan
Since 2014-09-21
Adhan is a great form of worship that isn’t just related to the Muaddin (the one who calls for Adhan), but there are five things that every Muslim can do once he hears the Adhan:
- First: Repeating after the Adhan. Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said: « » (Bukhari); except when he says "Haiyi `alassala, Hayya ala Al-Falah", we say: "La hawla wala quwwata ella billah" because in a hadith "When the Mu'adhdhin said, 'Haiyi `alassala (come for the prayer)', Muawiya said: 'La hawla wala quwata illa billah (There is neither might nor any power except with Allah)', and added: 'We heard your Prophet say the same' " (Bukhari).
- Second: After the Adhan is over we send Salat upon the Prophet (i.e say “Allahumma salli ala sayyidina Mohamad”). The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: « » (Muslim).
- Third: Ask Allah to give Prophet Mohamad 'Al-Wasila'. The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: « » (Muslim).
- Fourth: Recite Al-Shahada, and declare your acceptance of Allah, his messenger, and Islam. The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: « » (Muslim).
- Fifth: Make Duaa and ask Allah for whatever you want, inshalah your prayers will be answered. A man said: "Oh Messenger of Allah, the mu'adhdhins excel us". The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: « » (Abu Daoud, Nasai, Ahmad).
And do not forget our motto:
{وَإِنْ تُطِيعُوهُ تَهْتَدُوا}
Translation: {And if you obey him, you will be (rightly) guided} [An-Nur:54].
