Hannād narrated to us: ʿAbdah and Yaʿlā ibn ʿUbayd narrated to us, from ʿAbd al-Raḥmān ibn Ziyād ibn Anʿum al-Ifrīqī, from Ziyād ibn Nuʿaym al-Ḥaḍramī, from Ziyād ibn al-Ḥārith al-Ṣudāʾī, who said: The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) ordered me to call the adhān for the Fajr prayer. I called it, and Bilāl wanted to call the iqāmah. The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: “The brother from Ṣudāʾ has already called the adhān; whoever calls the adhān should call the iqāmah.” There is also a report on this topic from Ibn ʿUmar. Abū ʿĪsā said: We know the hadith of Ziyād only through the report of al-Ifrīqī. Al-Ifrīqī is weak according to hadith scholars; Yaḥyā ibn Saʿīd al-Qaṭṭān and others regarded him as weak. Aḥmad said, “I do not write down al-Ifrīqī’s hadith.” I saw Muḥammad ibn Ismāʿīl consider his case favorably, saying, “His hadith is close [to acceptable].” Most scholars act on the principle that whoever calls the adhān should call the iqāmah.
