ahmad:20849Ḥumayd b. ʿAbd al-Raḥman > Zuhayr > Simāk > Jābir b. Samurah

[Machine] Bilal used to call for prayer (adhan) when the sun set, he would not delay it, and he would not establish the prayer until the Prophet ﷺ came out. Then, when the Prophet ﷺ came out, Bilal would establish the prayer as soon as he saw him.  

أحمد:٢٠٨٤٩حَدَّثَنَا حُمَيْدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ حَدَّثَنَا زُهَيْرٌ عَنْ سِمَاكٍ عَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ سَمُرَةَ قَالَ

كَانَ بِلَالٌ يُؤَذِّنُ إِذَا زَالَتِ الشَّمْسُ لَا يَخْرِمُ ثُمَّ لَا يُقِيمُ حَتَّى يَخْرُجَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ قَالَ فَإِذَا خَرَجَ أَقَامَ حِينَ يَرَاهُ
