Sunan an-Nasai 2171 (Book 22, Hadith 82) #16782
Don't Be Confused By The Adhan Until Dawn Appears

SUMMARY: The Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) advised not to be confused by the Adhan of Bilal until dawn appears horizontally.

Samurah said: "The Messenger of Allah said; 'DO not be confused by the Adhan of Bilal, or by this whiteness, until dawn appears like this" - meaning horizontally. (One of the narrators) Abu Dawud said: "And he spread out his hands gesturing to the right and left".
أَخْبَرَنَا مَحْمُودُ بْنُ غَيْلاَنَ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو دَاوُدَ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ، أَنْبَأَنَا سَوَادَةُ بْنُ حَنْظَلَةَ، قَالَ سَمِعْتُ سَمُرَةَ، يَقُولُ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ‏ "‏ لاَ يَغُرَّنَّكُمْ أَذَانُ بِلاَلٍ وَلاَ هَذَا الْبَيَاضُ حَتَّى يَنْفَجِرَ الْفَجْرُ هَكَذَا وَهَكَذَا ‏"‏ ‏.‏ يَعْنِي مُعْتَرِضًا ‏.‏ قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُدَ وَبَسَطَ بِيَدَيْهِ يَمِينًا وَشِمَالاً مَادًّا يَدَيْهِ

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith is about the Prophet Muhammad's advice regarding the call to prayer at dawn. He advised his followers not to be confused or muddled by the call of Bilal until they can see that dawn has appeared horizontally across the sky. Abu Dawud added that when he said this, he gestured with his hands outstretched in both directions as if indicating a horizon line. This hadith teaches us that we should take our time and wait for a clear sign before taking any action or making any decisions - especially when it comes to matters of faith and religion. We should also remember that patience is key in all aspects of life; rushing into things without thinking them through properly can lead us astray from our goals and values.
