by consensus regarding the tarji' (repetition) in the Iqamah. For this reason, we and Abu Hanifah acted upon his report regarding the Adhan, while Malik and al-Shafi'i adopted his Adhan, and both of them hold the view of the individual (ifrad) Iqamah.

123 - Issue; He said: (And one should be measured and unhurried in the Adhan, and hasty in the Iqamah).

Al-tarassul means deliberation and patience, from their saying: "So-and-so came at his own pace (rislihi)." Al-hadru is the opposite of that, which is to hasten and to cease extending the sounds. This is among the etiquettes and recommended acts of the Adhan, due to the saying of the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him): "When you pronounce the Adhan, be measured and unhurried, and when you pronounce the Iqamah, be hasty." Reported by Abu Dawud and al-Tirmidhi, who said: "It is a gharib (rare) hadith." Abu 'Ubayd reported with his chain of narration from 'Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) that he said to the mu'adhdhin of Bayt al-Maqdis: "When you pronounce the Adhan, be measured, and when you pronounce the Iqamah, be hasty (hadhim)." Al-Asma'i said: "The root of al-hadhm in walking is merely to hasten, and for one to be, along with this, as if he is moving his hands toward his back." And because this is a meaning through which a distinction is achieved between the Adhan and the Iqamah, it is recommended, just like the individual (ifrad) wording. Furthermore, the Adhan is for notifying those who are absent, so stability in it is more effective for notification, while the Iqamah is for notifying those who are present, so there is no need for stability in it.

Section: Abu Abd Allah ibn Battah mentioned that when [the mu'adhdhin] is deliberate and measured, he should not connect the speech together with grammatical inflection (i'rab), but rather with sukun (jazm). He related this from Ibn al-Anbari, from the linguists. He said: And it was narrated from Ibrahim al-Nakha'i that he said: "Two things were performed with sukun (jazm), which they did not express with grammatical inflection: the Adhan and the Iqamah." He said: "This is an indication of their consensus."
