Jami' at-Tirmidhi — Hadith #26361

Qutaibah narrated to us, Al-Layth narrated to us, on the authority of Ibn Shihab, on the authority of Salim, on the authority of his father, that the Prophet, may God bless him and grant him peace, said, “Indeed, Bilal gives the call to prayer at night, so eat And drink until you hear Ibn Umm Maktum being harmed.” Abu Issa said, and in the chapter on the authority of Ibn Masoud, Aisha and Anisa. Anas, Abu Dharr, and Samurah. Abu Issa said the hadith of Ibn Umar is a hasan and authentic hadith. The people of knowledge differed regarding the call to prayer at night. Some people of knowledge said: If the muezzin gives the call to prayer at night, that is sufficient and he does not repeat it. This is the view of Malik, Ibn al-Mubarak, and al-Shafi’i. And Ahmad and Ishaq. And some of the people of knowledge said: If he calls the call to prayer at night, he repeats it. This is what Sufyan al-Thawri says. And Hammad bin Salamah, on the authority of Ayyub, on the authority of Nafi’, on the authority of Ibn Umar, that Bilal called the call to prayer at night, so the Prophet, may God bless him and grant him peace, ordered him to call out, “Indeed, the servant has slept.” Abu Issa said: This is an unpreserved hadith. Ali bin Al-Madini said: The hadith of Hammad bin Salamah, on the authority of Ayyub, on the authority of Nafi’, on the authority of Ibn Umar, on the authority of the Prophet May God bless him and grant him peace. It is not preserved, and Hammad bin Salamah made a mistake in it.
