Arabic (Original)
حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ عَنْ أَبِي جَعْفَرٍ قَالَ عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ لَيْسَ هُوَ الْفَرَّاءَ عَنْ أَبِي سَلْمَانَ عَنْ أَبِي مَحْذُورَةَ قَالَ كُنْتُ أُؤَذِّنُ فِي زَمَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي صَلَاةِ الصُّبْحِ فَإِذَا قُلْتُ حَيَّ عَلَى الْفَلَاحِ قُلْتُ الصَّلَاةُ خَيْرٌ مِنْ النَّوْمِ الصَّلَاةُ خَيْرٌ مِنْ النَّوْمِ الْأَذَانُ الْأَوَّلُ.
English Translation
Abd al-Rahman told us, Sufyan told us, from Abu Ja'far — Abd al-Rahman said: not al-Farra' — from Abu Salman, from Abu Mahdhurah, who said: I used to give the call to prayer in the time of the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, for the dawn prayer, and when I said "hasten to success," I would say "prayer is better than sleep, prayer is better than sleep" — the first call.
