• he pbuh would call out the adhaan¹ with or without repetition. he pbuh also pronounced the words of the iqaamah² once or twice, except that he always repeated the words “qad qamat is-salaah” (prayer has begun) twice.

• he pbuh ruled for his people that one who hears the adhaan should repeat the words after him, except for the words “hayya `alas-salaah" and "hayya `alal-falaah”, where one should say “la hawla wa la quwwata illa billaah." (there is no might and no power except through allah.”

• he pbuh also said, “whoever hears the adhaan and then says: 'ash-hadu anla ilaaha ill-allah wa anna muhammadan rasulullah. raditu billaahi rabban, wa bil- islami deenan wa bi muhammadin rasulan' (i bear witness that there is no god but allah, and that muhammad is his messenger. i am pleased with allah as lord, islam as religion and muhammad as messenger) - whoever says that will have his sins forgiven."

• he pbuh ruled that after repeating the words of the adhaan, one should invoke blessings upon the prophet pbuh, saying: “allaahumma rabba hadhihid-da`watit-taamma was-salaatil-qaa'imati, aati muhammadan al-waseelata wal-fadheelata, wab`ath-hu maqaaman mahmudan alladhi wa`adtah.'

(o allah, lord of this perfect call and present prayer, grant muhammad the waseelah (a position of intercession in paradise) and excellence and elevate him [on the day of judgment] to the praised position, which you have promised him.)

•  

• and he pbuh stated that supplication between the adhaan and iqaamah would never be refused [by allah].
