Qurʾān Ibn Rajab's Fifty Riyāḍ al-Ṣāliḥīn al-Adab al-Mufrad al-Luʾluʾ wa-al-Marjān Bukhārī Muslim Abū Dāwūd Tirmidhī Nasāʾī Ibn Mājah Dārimī Aḥmad Mālik Ḥākim Ibn Ḥibbān Bazzār Ibn Khuzaymah Ṭabarānī Nasāʾī's Kubrá Bayhaqī Aḥmad's Zuhd Suyūṭī

Responding to the call to prayer despite hardship

abudawud:553 – Hārūn b. Zayd b. Abī al-Zarqāʾ > Zayd b. Abī al-Zarqāʾ > Sufyān > ʿAbd al-Raḥmān b. ʿĀbis > ʿAbd al-Raḥmān b. Abī Laylá > b. Umm Maktūm

[AI] “O Messenger of Allah, Medina has many vermin and wild beasts.” The Prophet ﷺ said: "Do you hear, ‘Come to prayer, come to success’? Then come."

[AI] Abu Dawud said: Al-Qasim al-Jarmi also narrated it from Sufyan; in his hadith, the words “then come” are not present.

أبو داود:٥٥٣ – حَدَّثَنَا هَارُونُ بْنُ زَيْدِ بْنِ أَبِي الزَّرْقَاءِ حَدَّثَنَا أَبِي حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ عَابِسٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ أَبِي لَيْلَى عَنِ ابْنِ أُمِّ مَكْتُومٍ قَالَ

يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ، إِنَّ الْمَدِينَةَ كَثِيرَةُ الْهَوَامِّ وَالسِّبَاعِ، فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ: «أَتَسْمَعُ حَىَّ عَلَى الصَّلاَةِ، حَىَّ عَلَى الْفَلاَحِ؟ فَحَىَّ هَلاَ».

قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُدَ وَكَذَا رَوَاهُ الْقَاسِمُ الْجَرْمِيُّ عَنْ سُفْيَانَ لَيْسَ فِي حَدِيثِهِ حَىَّ هَلاَ
