7.49 [Machine] Abdullah ibn Zaid ibn Abdul-Rabbi, the companion who gave the call to prayer about the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ

٧۔٤٩ حديث عبد الله بن زيد بن عبد ربه صاحب الأذان عن النبي ﷺ

ahmad:16474ʿAbd al-Ṣamad b. ʿAbd al-Wārith > Abān > al-ʿAṭṭār > Yaḥyá / Ibn Abū Kathīr > Abū Salamah > Muḥammad b. ʿAbdullāh b. Zayd from his father

[Machine] He witnessed the Prophet ﷺ near the place of sacrifice, and there was a man from the Quraysh tribe who was dividing the sacrificial animals. He did not get anything from them, nor did his companion. So the Messenger of Allah ﷺ shaved his head and gave him some hair from it. He also cut his nails and gave them to his companion. The Prophet ﷺ said, "Indeed, in our tradition, hair and nails are considered blessed with henna and katam," meaning his hair.  

أحمد:١٦٤٧٤حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الصَّمَدِ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْوَارِثِ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا أَبَانُ هُوَ الْعَطَّارُ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى يَعْنِي ابْنَ أَبِي كَثِيرٍ عَنْ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ زَيْدٍ أَنَّ أَبَاهُ حَدَّثَهُ

أَنَّهُ شَهِدَ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ عِنْدَ الْمَنْحَرِ وَرَجُلًا مِنْ قُرَيْشٍ وَهُوَ يَقْسِمُ أَضَاحِيَّ فَلَمْ يُصِبْهُ مِنْهَا شَيْءٌ وَلَا صَاحِبَهُ فَحَلَقَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ رَأْسَهُ فِي ثَوْبِهِ فَأَعْطَاهُ فَقَسَمَ مِنْهُ عَلَى رِجَالٍ وَقَلَّمَ أَظْفَارَهُ فَأَعْطَاهُ صَاحِبَهُ قَالَ فَإِنَّهُ لَعِنْدَنَا مَخْضُوبٌ بِالْحِنَّاءِ وَالْكَتَمِ يَعْنِي شَعْرَهُ  

ahmad:16475Abū Dāwud al-Ṭayālisī > Abān al-ʿAṭṭār > Yaḥyá b. Abū Kathīr > Abū Salamah > Muḥammad b. ʿAbdullāh b. Zayd from his father

[Machine] He witnessed the Prophet ﷺ at Al-Munhar and a man from Al-Ansar. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ divided the sacrificial animals, and neither he nor his companion were harmed. He shaved his head with his garment and gave it to him. He divided it among men and trimmed his nails, and his companion gave him his hair, as his hair was dyed with henna and katam among us.  

أحمد:١٦٤٧٥حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو دَاوُدَ الطَّيَالِسِيُّ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا أَبَانُ الْعَطَّارُ عَنْ يَحْيَى بْنِ أَبِي كَثِيرٍ أَنَّ أَبَا سَلَمَةَ حَدَّثَهُ أَنَّ مُحَمَّدَ بْنَ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ زَيْدٍ أَخْبَرَهُ عَنْ أَبِيهِ

أَنَّهُ شَهِدَ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ عِنْدَ الْمَنْحَرِ هُوَ وَرَجُلٌ مِنَ الْأَنْصَارِ فَقَسَمَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ ضَحَايَا فَلَمْ يُصِبْهُ وَلَا صَاحِبَهُ شَيْءٌ وَحَلَقَ رَأْسَهُ فِي ثَوْبِهِ فَأَعْطَاهُ وَقَسَمَ مِنْهُ عَلَى رِجَالٍ وَقَلَّمَ أَظْفَارَهُ فَأَعْطَاهُ صَاحِبَهُ فَإِنَّ شَعْرَهُ عِنْدَنَا لمَخْضُوبٌ بِالْحِنَّاءِ وَالْكَتَمِ  

ahmad:16476Zayd b. al-Ḥubāb Abū al-Ḥusayn al-ʿUklī > Abū Sahl Muḥammad b. ʿAmr > ʿAbdullāh b. Muḥammad b. Zayd from his uncle ʿAbdullāh b. Zayd Rāʾī al-Adhān

[Machine] "I came to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and informed him. He said, 'Give it to Bilal.' So, I gave it to him and Bilal called the Adhan (call to prayer). Then, he wanted to establish the prayer, so I said, 'O Messenger of Allah, I am an impotent man (meaning weak in terms of performing actions), I want someone else to establish the prayer.' He said, 'You establish it.' So, I established it and he (the Messenger of Allah) also established it, and Bilal called the Adhan."  

أحمد:١٦٤٧٦حَدَّثَنَا زَيْدُ بْنُ الْحُبَابِ أَبُو الْحُسَيْنِ الْعُكْلِيُّ قَالَ أَخْبَرَنِي أَبُو سَهْلٍ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَمْرٍو قَالَ أَخْبَرَنِي عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ زَيْدٍ عَنْ عَمِّهِ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ زَيْدٍ رائِي الْأَذَانَ قَالَ

فَجِئْتُ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَأَخْبَرْتُهُ فَقَالَ أَلْقِهِ عَلَى بِلَالٍ فَأَلْقَيْتُهُ فَأَذَّنَ قَالَ فَأَرَادَ أَنْ يُقِيمَ فَقُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ أَنَا رَأَبْتُ أُرِيدُ أَنْ أُقِيمَ قَالَ فَأَقِمْ أَنْتَ فَأَقَامَ هُوَ وَأَذَّنَ بِلَالٌ  

ahmad:16477Yaʿqūb from my father > Ibn Isḥāq > And Dhakar Muḥammad b. Muslim al-Zuhrī > Saʿīd b. al-Musayyib > ʿAbdullāh b. Zayd b. ʿAbd Rabbih

when the Messenger of Allah ﷺ ordered a bell to be made so that it might be struck to gather the people for prayer, a man carrying a bell in his hand appeared to me while I was asleep, and I said; servant of ‘abd Allah, will you sell the bell? He asked; what will you do with it? I replied; we shall use it to call the people to prayer. He said; should I not suggest you something better than that. I replied: certainly. Then he told me to say: Allah is most great, Allah is most great, Allah is most great, Allah is most great. I testify that there is no god but Allah, I testify that Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah. Come to pray, come to pray; come to salvation; come to salvation. Allah is most great, Allah is most great. I testify that there is no god but Allah. He then moved backward a few steps and said: when you utter the IQAMAH, you should say: Allah is most great, Allah is most great. I testify that there is no god but Allah, I testify that Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah. Come to prayer, come to salvation. The time for prayer has come, the time for prayer has come: Allah is most great, Allah is most great. There is no god but Allah. When the morning came, I came to the Messenger of Allah (May peace be upon him) and informed him of what I had seen in the dream. He said: it is a genuine vision, and he then should use it to call people to prayer, for he has a louder voice than you have. So I got up along with Bilal and began to teach it to him and he used it in making the call to prayer. ‘Umar b. al-khattab (Allah be pleased with him) heard it while he was in his house and came out trailing his cloak and said: Messenger of Allah. By him who has sent you with the truth, I have also seen the kind of thing as has been shown to him. The Messenger of Allah (May peace be upon him) said: To Allah be the praise. Abu Dawud said; Al-Zuhri narrated this tradition in a similar way from Sa’id b. al-Musayyib on the authority of ‘Abd Allah b. Zaid. In this version Ibn Ishaq narrated from al-Zuhri: Allah is most great. Allah is most great, Allah is most great, Allah is most great. Ma;mar and yunus narrated from al-Zuhri; Allah is most great, Allah is most great. They did not report it twice again. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 499)
