EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith is about the call to prayer, or adhan. It was narrated by Abu Mahdurah who reported that the Prophet Muhammad himself taught him how to perform it. The adhan is a call for Muslims to come and pray in congregation. It begins with proclaiming “Allahu Akbar” four times, which means “God is great” in Arabic. Then it continues with two statements of shahada, which are declarations of faith that there is no god but God and that Muhammad is His messenger. After this comes a call for people to come and pray as well as seek salvation from God. Finally, it ends with another proclamation of “Allahu Akbar” twice. This hadith teaches us about the importance of prayer in Islam and how we should respond when we hear the adhan being called out five times a day from mosques all around us.
