Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A questioner says: When the mu'adhdhin calls the Fajr adhan and says, "Prayer is better than sleep," should the listener say what the mu'adhdhin said?
The Shaykh:
It is the apparent meaning of the hadith, yes.Sahih Muslim 383, so this implies that he should say, "Prayer is better than sleep." Yes.
The questioner:
That is all. Yes.
The Shaykh:
And Allah the Exalted knows best, and may Allah send prayers and peace upon our Prophet Muhammad.
