Arabic hadith text

حَدَّثَنَا سُلَيْمَانُ بْنُ حَرْبٍ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ زَيْدٍ، عَنْ سِمَاكِ بْنِ عَطِيَّةَ، عَنْ أَيُّوبَ، عَنْ أَبِي قِلاَبَةَ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ، قَالَ أُمِرَ بِلاَلٌ أَنْ يَشْفَعَ، الأَذَانَ وَأَنْ يُوتِرَ الإِقَامَةَ إِلاَّ الإِقَامَةَ‏.‏

Translation

Sulaiman bin Harb narrated to us: Hammad bin Zaid narrated to us, from Simak bin ‘Atiyya, from Ayyub, from Abu Qilaba, from Anas, who said: Bilal was instructed to pronounce the phrases of the call to prayer in pairs and the phrases of the commencement in single form, except for the words ‘The prayer is established.’
