Tahdhīb al-Aḥkām|Volume 2|Book 1|Chapter 6
اَلْحُسَيْنُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ عَنِ اَلنَّضْرِ عَنْ يَحْيَى اَلْحَلَبِيِّ عَنْ عِمْرَانَ بْنِ عَلِيٍّ قَالَ: سَأَلْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ عَنِ اَلْأَذَانِ قَبْلَ اَلْفَجْرِ فَقَالَ« إِذَا كَانَ فِي جَمَاعَةٍ فَلاَ وَ إِذَا كَانَ وَحْدَهُ فَلاَ بَأْسَ»
Narrated by al-Husayn ibn Sa’id from al-Nadr from Yahya al-Halabi from ‘Imran ibn Ali, who said:
I asked Abu Abdillah عليه السلام about giving the adhan before Fajr. Imam عليه السلام said: "If it is in congregation, then no [it is not permissible]; but if he is alone, then there is no harm."
