Question

Is this narration authentic

Sa’id ibn Abdul Aziz (rahimahullah) narrates: “During the Incident of Al Harrah, there was no Adhan or Iqamah proclaimed from Masjid An Nabawi for three days. Sa’id ibn Musayyab (rahimahullah) stayed in Masjid An Nabawi, he used to find out about the time of Salah by the whispering voice which he heard from inside the grave of Nabi (sallallahu ‘alayhi wa sallam)”

 

Answer

Imam Darimi (rahimahullah) has recorded this narration. The narration is suitable to quote. Some versions suggest that Adhan would be heard from the grave of Rasulullah (sallallahu ‘alayhi wa sallam).

(Sunan Darimi, Hadith: 94, Tabaqat Ibn Sa’d, vol. 5 pg. 100. Also see: Al Hawi of ‘Allamah Suyuti, vol. 2 pg. 179)

 

 

And Allah Ta’ala knows best.
