Hadith 2

The Book of Prayer

ENGLISH

And Muslim reported a narration by 'Umar (RA) regarding the virtue of repeating what the Mu'adhdhin pronounces word by word except when the Mu'adhdhin says:

"Haiya 'alas-Salah, Haiya 'alal-Falah (Come to the prayer and come to the success)", one should say: "La hawla wa la quwwata illa billah [there is no might and no power except with (the help of) Allah]."

ARABIC

وَلِمُسْلِمٍ: { عَنْ عُمَرَ فِي فَضْلِ اَلْقَوْلِ كَمَا يَقُولُ اَلْمُؤَذِّنُ كَلِمَةً كَلِمَةً, سِوَى اَلْحَيْعَلَتَيْنِ, فَيَقُولُ:

لَا حَوْلَ وَلَا قُوَّةَ إِلَّا بِاَللَّهِ
