Sunan Ibn Majah 717 (Book 3, Hadith 12) #30069
The Importance of Equality in Islamic Worship

SUMMARY: The Prophet Muhammad commanded Ziyad bin Harith As-Suda'i to call the Adhan and Bilal wanted to call the Iqamah, but the Prophet said that Ziyad should also be the one to call the Iqamah.

It was narrated that Ziyad bin Harith As-Suda'i said: "I was with the Messenger of Allah on a journey, and he commanded me to call the Adhan. Bilal wanted to call the Iqamah, but the Messenger of Allah said: 'The brother of Suda' called the Adhan, and the one who calls the Adhan is the one who calls the Iqamah'."
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا يَعْلَى بْنُ عُبَيْدٍ، حَدَّثَنَا الإِفْرِيقِيُّ، عَنْ زِيَادِ بْنِ نُعَيْمٍ، عَنْ زِيَادِ بْنِ الْحَارِثِ الصُّدَائِيِّ، قَالَ كُنْتُ مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ـ ـ فِي سَفَرٍ فَأَمَرَنِي فَأَذَّنْتُ فَأَرَادَ بِلاَلٌ أَنْ يُقِيمَ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ـ ـ ‏ "‏ إِنَّ أَخَا صُدَاءٍ قَدْ أَذَّنَ وَمَنْ أَذَّنَ فَهُوَ يُقِيمُ

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith highlights an important value in Islam which is equality. It was narrated by Ziyad bin Harith As-Suda'i that he was with the Messenger of Allah on a journey and he commanded him to call out the Adhan, which is a special Islamic prayer that signals when it's time for worship. Bilal wanted to do this as well, but instead, Prophet Muhammad said that Ziyad should also be given this responsibility. This shows us how important it is for everyone to have equal opportunities regardless of their background or status in society. We can learn from this hadith that we should not discriminate against anyone and give everyone a chance at success and recognition no matter who they are or where they come from.
