The Call to Prayer and the Establishment of Prayer and the Reward of the Muezzins
وَقَالَ أَبُو جَعْفَرٍ لِمُحَمَّدِ بْنِ مُسْلِمٍ: «يَا مُحَمَّدَ بْنَ مُسْلِمٍ لاَ تَدَعَنَّ ذِكْرَ اَللَّهِ عَلَى كُلِّ حَالٍ وَ لَوْ سَمِعْتَ اَلْمُنَادِيَ يُنَادِي بِالْأَذَانِ وَ أَنْتَ عَلَى اَلْخَلاَءِ فَاذْكُرِ اَللَّهَ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ وَ قُلْ كَمَا يَقُولُ اَلْمُؤَذِّنُ.
Imam Muhammad ibn Ali Al-Baqir عليه السلام said to Muhammad ibn Muslim: "O’ Muhammad ibn Muslim, never neglect the remembrance of Allah سبحانه وتعالى in any situation. Even if you hear the caller calling the adhan while you are in a state of relieving yourself, remember Allah سبحانه وتعالى, the Mighty and Majestic, and say what the mu'adhdhin says."
