Sunan an-Nasai 665 (Book 7, Hadith 40) #15273
Identifying Voices on a Journey

SUMMARY: The Prophet Muhammad (S.A.W) was on a journey and heard the voice of a man calling the Adhan, and he identified it as a shepherd or someone away from his family.

It was narrated from 'Abdullah bin Rubayyi'ah that he was with the Messenger of Allah (S.A.W) on a journey and he heard the voice of a man calling the Adhan, and he said what he said. Then he said: "This is a shepherd or a man who is away from his family". So they looked and so it was a shepherd.
أَخْبَرَنَا إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ مَنْصُورٍ، قَالَ أَنْبَأَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ، عَنْ شُعْبَةَ، عَنِ الْحَكَمِ، عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي لَيْلَى، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ رُبَيِّعَةَ، أَنَّهُ كَانَ مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ فِي سَفَرٍ فَسَمِعَ صَوْتَ رَجُلٍ يُؤَذِّنُ فَقَالَ مِثْلَ قَوْلِهِ ثُمَّ قَالَ إِنَّ هَذَا لَرَاعِي غَنَمٍ أَوْ عَازِبٌ عَنْ أَهْلِهِ ‏.‏ فَنَظَرُوا فَإِذَا هُوَ رَاعِي غَنَمٍ

EXPLANATIONS:
The hadith narrated by Abdullah bin Rubayyi’ah tells us about an incident that happened when the Prophet Muhammad was traveling with his companions. They heard the sound of someone calling out for prayer, which is known as Adhan in Arabic. The Prophet Muhammad then identified it as coming from either a shepherd or someone who is away from their family. When they looked around, they found that it was indeed coming from a shepherd who was tending to his flock of animals in the area. This hadith teaches us that even though we may not be able to see what is happening around us, we can still use our senses such as hearing to identify things and people around us accurately. It also shows us how observant and wise the Prophet Muhammad was in recognizing different sounds even while he was traveling with his companions far away from home.
