[Machine] "The Prophet ﷺ said to Bilal, 'O Bilal, you give the call to prayer when the dawn is shining in the sky. That is not the dawn. The true dawn is like this,' as he raised his hands. Then he called for his pre-dawn meal (suhoor) and had it. He used to say, 'My Ummah (followers) will always be in goodness as long as they delay suhoor and hasten to break their fast.'"  

أحمد:٢١٥٠٧حَدَّثَنَا مُوسَى بْنُ دَاوُدَ حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ لَهِيعَةَ عَنْ سَالِمِ بْنِ غَيْلَانَ عَنْ سُلَيْمَانَ بْنِ أَبِي عُثْمَانَ عَنْ عَدِيِّ بْنِ حَاتِمٍ الْحِمْصِيِّ عَنْ أَبِي ذَرٍّ

أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ قَالَ لِبِلَالٍ أَنْتَ يَا بِلَالُ تُؤَذِّنُ إِذَا كَانَ الصُّبْحُ سَاطِعًا فِي السَّمَاءِ فَلَيْسَ ذَلِكَ بِالصُّبْحِ إِنَّمَا الصُّبْحُ هَكَذَا مُعْتَرِضًا ثُمَّ دَعَا بِسَحُورِهِ فَتَسَحَّرَ وَكَانَ يَقُولُ لَا تَزَالُ أُمَّتِي بِخَيْرٍ مَا أَخَّرُوا السَّحُورَ وَعَجَّلُوا الْفِطْرَ
