What is the prescribed supplication after the adhan?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Many of the brothers ask this question, which is: the reported supplication after the adhan, and are there supplications after the mu'adhdhin has finished his adhan?
Answer:
The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) recommended it, saying: This is the sunnah (recommended practice), and he said: Sahih al-Bukhari 614.
Therefore, the believer should, when he hears the call, respond to the mu'adhdhin in the same way: Allahu Akbar, Allahu Akbar; I bear witness that there is no god but Allah, I bear witness that there is no god but Allah; I bear witness that Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah, likewise; Hayya 'ala al-salah: La hawla wa la quwwata illa billah; Hayya 'ala al-falah: La hawla wa la quwwata illa billah; al-salah khayrun min al-nawm, he says the same: al-salah khayrun min al-nawm; Allahu Akbar, Allahu Akbar, La ilaha illa Allah, he says the same, likewise; and so, when he says Qad qamat al-salah, he says the same: Qad qamat al-salah—in the iqamah (the second call, immediately before prayer)—then he says after that, he sends blessings upon the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) after that, then he says: O Allah, Lord of this perfect call and the established prayer, grant Muhammad the wasilah (intercession) and the virtue, and raise him to the praiseworthy station that You have promised him. Al-Bayhaqi added with a good chain of narration:Muwatta Malik 20:132 Yes.
The presenter: In the wording: the reported prayer, O Shaykh?
The Shaykh:Sahih al-Bukhari 3370 This is the best of what was reported... the most complete of what was reported.
And if he says:Sahih Muslim 407 it is also authentic and established from the Prophet, so if he sends blessings upon the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) with any of the reported descriptions, he has done the sunnah (recommended practice).
The presenter: If he says: (O Allah, send blessings upon our Prophet Muhammad) only (O Allah, Lord of this perfect call...)?
The Shaykh: There is nothing wrong with it, but if he completes it, it is better; if he completes it, it is better.
The presenter: May Allah reward you with good, O Shaykh.
Many of the brothers ask this question, which is: the reported supplication after the adhan, and are there supplications after the mu'adhdhin has finished his adhan?
Answer:
The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) recommended it, saying:
When you hear the mu'adhdhin, say what he says, then send blessings upon me, for whoever sends blessings upon me once, Allah will send blessings upon him ten times. Then ask Allah for me the wasilah (intercession), for it is a station in Paradise that is not fitting except for a servant among the servants of Allah, and I hope that I will be he. Whoever asks Allah for me the wasilah (intercession), intercession will be made lawful for him.
إذا سمعتم المؤذن فقولوا مثلما يقول ثم صلوا علي فإنه من صلى علي واحدة صلى الله عليه بها عشرًا ثم سلوا الله لي الوسيلة؛ فإنها منزلة في الجنة لا تنبغي إلا لعبد من عباد الله وأرجو أن أكون أنا هو، فمن سأل الله لي الوسيلة حلت له الشفاعةWhoever after listening to the Adhan says, 'Allahumma Rabba hadhihi-dda` watit-tammah, was-salatil qa'imah, ati Muhammadan al-wasilata wal-fadilah, wa b`ath-hu maqaman mahmudan-il-ladhi wa`adtahu' [O Allah! Lord of this perfect call (perfect by not ascribing partners to You) and of the regular prayer which is going to be established, give Muhammad the right of intercession and illustriousness, and resurrect him to the best and the highest place in Paradise that You promised him (of)], then my intercession for him will be allowed on the Day of Resurrection
من قال حين يسمع النداء: اللهم رب هذه الدعوة التامة والصلاة القائمة، آت محمدًا الوسيلة والفضيلة، وابعثه مقام محمودًا الذي وعدته؛ حلت له شفاعتي يوم القيامةTherefore, the believer should, when he hears the call, respond to the mu'adhdhin in the same way: Allahu Akbar, Allahu Akbar; I bear witness that there is no god but Allah, I bear witness that there is no god but Allah; I bear witness that Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah, likewise; Hayya 'ala al-salah: La hawla wa la quwwata illa billah; Hayya 'ala al-falah: La hawla wa la quwwata illa billah; al-salah khayrun min al-nawm, he says the same: al-salah khayrun min al-nawm; Allahu Akbar, Allahu Akbar, La ilaha illa Allah, he says the same, likewise; and so, when he says Qad qamat al-salah, he says the same: Qad qamat al-salah—in the iqamah (the second call, immediately before prayer)—then he says after that, he sends blessings upon the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) after that, then he says: O Allah, Lord of this perfect call and the established prayer, grant Muhammad the wasilah (intercession) and the virtue, and raise him to the praiseworthy station that You have promised him. Al-Bayhaqi added with a good chain of narration:
You do not break Your promise
إنك لا تخلف الميعادThe presenter: In the wording:
Then pray for me
ثم صلوا عليThe Shaykh:
Say: O Allah! Send Your Mercy on Muhammad and on the family of Muhammad, as You sent Your Mercy on Abraham and on the family of Abraham, for You are the Most Praise-worthy, the Most Glorious. O Allah! Send Your Blessings on Muhammad and the family of Muhammad, as You sent your Blessings on Abraham and on the family of Abraham, for You are the Most Praise-worthy, the Most Glorious.
اللهم صل على محمد وعلى آل محمد، كما صليت على إبراهيم وعلى آل إبراهيم ، إنك حميد مجيد، اللهم بارك على محمد وعلى آل محمد كما باركت على إبراهيم وعلى آل إبراهيم إنك حميد مجيدAnd if he says:
O Allah! bless Muhammad, his wives and his offspring as Thou didst bless Ibrahim, and grant favours to Muhammad, and his wives and his offspring as Thou didst grant favours to the family of Ibrahim; Thou art Praiseworthy and Glorious.
اللهم صل على محمد وعلى أزواجه وذريته كما صليت على آل إبراهيم، وبارك على محمد وعلى أزواجه وذريته كما باركت على آل إبراهيم إنك حميد مجيدThe presenter: If he says: (O Allah, send blessings upon our Prophet Muhammad) only (O Allah, Lord of this perfect call...)?
The Shaykh: There is nothing wrong with it, but if he completes it, it is better; if he completes it, it is better.
The presenter: May Allah reward you with good, O Shaykh.
