Book of the Adhan and the Iqama (Prayer)

كتاب الأذان ( ( ( الصلاة ) ) ) والإقامة

Hadith 2:222

Abu Bakr narrated to us, he said: Ibn ‘Ulayyah narrated to us, from Hisham, from Yahya, he said: It was narrated to me that the Messenger of Allah (may Allah bless him and grant him peace) said: "If the people knew what is in the Adhan, they would have vied for it." He said: And it used to be said: "Hasten to the Adhan, and do not hasten to the Iqamah."

حدثنا أبو بكر قال نا بن علية عن هشام عن يحيى قال حدثت أن رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم قال لو علم الناس ما في الآذان لتحاروه قال وكان يقال ابتدروا الأذان ولا تبتدروا الإقامة
