What is said when the mu'adhdhin says: "Prayer is better than sleep"?

Question:
This questioner says to the program, in his question: Is there a report regarding what we say when the mu'adhdhin says: "Prayer is better than sleep," such as "You have spoken the truth and you have done well, and you have spoken with truth"?

Answer:
Some jurists say this, but the correct view is that one should say the same thing: "Prayer is better than sleep." This is based on the saying of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him): . This covers the phrase "Prayer is better than sleep." One does not say "You have spoken the truth and you have done well," nor anything else, but rather says: "Prayer is better than sleep," in accordance with the saying of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him): . This is the prescribed practice, except for the "hi'lah" (the call to prayer and success). When he says: "Hayya 'ala al-salah" (Come to prayer) and "Hayya 'ala al-falah" (Come to success), one says: "La hawla wa la quwwata illa billah" (There is no power nor strength except with Allah). This is because it is authentically reported from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) that he used to say this during the "hi'lah," as narrated by Muslim from the hadith of 'Umar (may Allah be pleased with him). Yes.
