مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَلِيِّ بْنِ مَحْبُوبٍ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ اَلْحُسَيْنِ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ حَسَّانَ عَنْ عِيسَى بْنِ عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ جَدِّهِ عَنْ عَلِيٍّ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اَللَّهِ صَلَّى اَللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ لِلْمُؤَذِّنِ فِيمَا بَيْنَ اَلْأَذَانِ وَاَلْإِقَامَةِ مِثْلُ أَجْرِ اَلشَّهِيدِ اَلْمُتَشَحِّطِ بِدَمِهِ فِي سَبِيلِ اَللَّهِ» قَالَ قُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اَللَّهِ إِنَّهُمْ يَجْتَلِدُونَ عَلَى اَلْأَذَانِ قَالَ كَلاَّ إِنَّهُ يَأْتِي عَلَى اَلنَّاسِ زَمَانٌ يَطْرَحُونَ اَلْأَذَانَ عَلَى ضُعَفَائِهِمْ وَتِلْكَ لُحُومٌ حَرَّمَهَا اَللَّهُ عَلَى اَلنَّارِ»
Muhammad ibn Ali ibn Mahbub from Muhammad ibn Al-Husayn from Muhammad ibn Hassan from Isa ibn Abdullah from his father from his grandfather:
(Imam) Ali عليه السلام, peace be upon him, said: “The Messenger of Allah سبحانه وتعالى (may Allah سبحانه وتعالى bless him and his family) said: ‘For the Mu'adhdhin, between the Adhan and the Iqamah, there is the reward similar to that of a martyr who is covered in his blood in the way of Allah سبحانه وتعالى.’" Imam عليه السلام said: "I asked: ‘O Messenger of Allah سبحانه وتعالى, they strive against one another for the Adhan!’" He صلى الله عليه وعلى آله وسلم said: "No, indeed a time will come upon the people when they will cast the Adhan upon their weak ones, and those (Mu'adhdhins) will be bodies whose flesh Allah سبحانه وتعالى has made forbidden to the Fire."
