Question

Is there a Hadith which states that du’a made when a rooster crows is accepted?

 

Answer

I have not come across these exact words in a Hadith.

Imam Bukhari and Imam Muslim (rahimahumallah) have recorded the following narration regarding du’a when a rooster crows:

Sayyiduna Abu Hurayrah (radiyallahu ‘anhu) reports that Nabi (sallallahu ‘alayhi wa sallam) said, “When you hear a rooster crow, then ask Allah for His bounty, for it has seen an Angel…”

(Sahih Bukhari, Hadith: 3303 and Sahih Muslim, Hadith: 2729)

Qadi ‘Iyad (rahimahullah) explains, “It is hoped that the Angels say Amin to the du’a of this person” [Therefore we are encouraged to make du’a at this time].

(Refer: Fathul Bari, under Hadith: 3303, vol. 6, pg. 353)

Insha Allah, if a person makes other du’as as well, The Angels will also say Amin.

 

And Allah Ta’ala Knows best.

التخريج من المصادر العربية

صحيح بخاري:
(٣٣٠٣)  حدثنا قتيبة، حدثنا الليث، عن جعفر بن ربيعة، عن الأعرج، عن أبي هريرة رضي الله عنه، أن النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم، قال: «إذا سمعتم صياح الديكة فاسألوا الله من فضله، فإنها رأت ملكا».

صحيح مسلم:
(٢٧٢٩)  حدثني قتيبة بن سعيد، حدثنا ليث، عن جعفر بن ربيعة، عن الأعرج، عن أبي هريرة، أن النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم قال: «إذا سمعتم صياح الديكة، فاسألوا الله من فضله، فإنها رأت ملكا».

فتح الباري: (٦/ ٣٥٣، رقم: ٣٣٠٣)
عن زيد بن خالد قوله فإنها رأت ملكا بفتح اللام قال عياض كان السبب فيه رجاء تأمين الملائكة على دعائه واستغفارهم له وشهادتهم له بالإخلاص ويؤخذ منه استحباب الدعاء عند حضور الصالحين تبركا بهم وصحح ابن حبان وأخرجه أبو داود وأحمد.
