Chapter No. 7, The Book of the Adhan (The Call to Prayer)
Hadith No: 668
Narrated/Authority of Rifaah bin Rafi
that while the Messenger of Allah (saw) was sitting in the row for prayer. The Hadith.* (Sahih)
*With this chain, At-Tirmidhi recorded it (No. 302) and An-Nasai in Al-Kubra (No. 1631). It is the narration about the man who prayed incorrectly, and in it, the Prophet (saw) instructed him: 'Then Tashhad, then say the Iqamah." And they say that the meaning of Tashhad here is call the Adhan. An-Nasai recorded the hadith with different chains (1054, 1137, 1314,1315). Whereas the wording narrated by At-Tirmidhi, and the author in Al-Kubra, mentions what the author mentioned in the chapter, the other cited versions that An-Nasai in this book quoted do not. So it is as if he narrated the chain here for Hadith, indicating the same version that At-Tirmidhi narrated, and he himself in Al-Kubra, but he did not was to narrate the actual text here. Abu Dawud also narrated it with the order for the Adhan and Iqamah, through a different route of transmission (No. 861). And it is among the proofs used for the view that the Adhan and Iqamah are obligatory - since it has been ordered in the Hadith of the one who prayed incorrectly.
