The Call to Prayer and the Establishment of Prayer and the Reward of the Muezzins
وَقَالَ أَبُو جَعْفَرٍ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ: «اَلْمُؤَذِّنُ يَغْفِرُ اَللَّهُ لَهُ مَدَّ بَصَرِهِ وَ مَدَّ صَوْتِهِ فِي اَلسَّمَاءِ وَ يُصَدِّقُهُ كُلُّ رَطْبٍ وَ يَابِسٍ يَسْمَعُهُ وَ لَهُ مِنْ كُلِّ مَنْ يُصَلِّي مَعَهُ فِي مَسْجِدِهِ سَهْمٌ وَ لَهُ مِنْ كُلِّ مَنْ يُصَلِّي بِصَوْتِهِ حَسَنَةٌ.
Imam Muhammad ibn Ali Al-Baqir عليه السلام said: "For the mu'adhdhin (caller to prayer), Allah سبحانه وتعالى forgives him as far as his sight and voice reach into the sky. Every moist and dry thing that hears him bears witness to his truth. For every person who prays with him in his mosque, he receives a share, and for every person who prays due to hearing his call, he earns a good deed."
