Hadith 898

Volume 1

English

It is narrated from Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (peace be upon him) said: "No one should call the Adhan except in a state of ablution." [Narrated by Al-Tirmidhi, who graded it weak. Our scholars said: "This only indicates recommendation, because there is consensus that reciting the Qur'an without ablution is not disliked, and the Qur'an is more sacred than the Adhan. If reciting it without ablution is not disliked, how can calling the Adhan without ablution be disliked? Therefore, narrations about ablution are understood as recommendations." This is stated in Ta'liq I'la' as-Sunan.

Note 1

ف: ہمارے علماء کہتے ہیں کہ اس حدیث سے معلوم ہوتا ہے کہ باوضوء شخص کا اذان دینا مستحب ہے اور اذان کیلئے وضوء ضروری نہیں ہے، اس کی وجہ یہ ہے کہ جب قرآن کو جو عظمت میں اذان سے زیادہ ہے بغیر ہاتھ لگائے ہوئے بغیر وضوء پڑھ سکتے ہیں تو اذان جو عظمت میں قرآن سے کم ہے بغیر وضوء اذان دینا کس طرح ناجائز ہوگا، اس لئے جن روایتوں سے باوضوء اذان دینا ثابت ہوتا ہے ان سے اذان باوضوء دینا مستحب قرار پائے گا، (اس کی تائید ابراہیم نخعی رضی اللہ عنہ کی آنے والی روایت سے ہوتی ہے)۔ (یہ تعلیق ’’اعلاء السنن‘‘ میں مذکور ہے۔)
