\nNarrated `Abdullah bin Mas`ud:\n \n\nThe Prophet (ﷺ) said, "The Adhan pronounced by Bilal should not stop you from taking Suhur, for he \npronounces the Adhan at night, so that the one offering the late night prayer (Tahajjud) from among \nyou might hurry up and the sleeping from among you might wake up. It does not mean that dawn or \nmorning has started." Then he (the Prophet) pointed with his fingers and raised them up (towards the \nsky) and then lowered them (towards the earth) like this (Ibn Mas`ud imitated the gesture of the \nProphet). Az-Zuhri gestured with his two index fingers which he put on each other and then stretched \nthem to the right and left. These gestures illustrate the way real dawn appears. It spreads left and right \nhorizontally. The dawn that appears in the high sky and lowers down is not the real dawn) .\n

حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ يُونُسَ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا زُهَيْرٌ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا سُلَيْمَانُ التَّيْمِيُّ، عَنْ أَبِي عُثْمَانَ النَّهْدِيِّ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ مَسْعُودٍ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ ‏\n"‏ لاَ يَمْنَعَنَّ أَحَدَكُمْ ـ أَوْ أَحَدًا مِنْكُمْ ـ أَذَانُ بِلاَلٍ مِنْ سَحُورِهِ، فَإِنَّهُ يُؤَذِّنُ ـ أَوْ يُنَادِي ـ بِلَيْلٍ، لِيَرْجِعَ قَائِمَكُمْ وَلِيُنَبِّهَ نَائِمَكُمْ، وَلَيْسَ أَنْ يَقُولَ الْفَجْرُ أَوِ الصُّبْحُ ‏"‏‏.‏ وَقَالَ بِأَصَابِعِهِ وَرَفَعَهَا إِلَى فَوْقُ وَطَأْطَأَ إِلَى أَسْفَلُ حَتَّى يَقُولَ هَكَذَا‏.‏ وَقَالَ زُهَيْرٌ بِسَبَّابَتَيْهِ إِحْدَاهُمَا فَوْقَ الأُخْرَى ثُمَّ مَدَّهَا عَنْ يَمِينِهِ وَشِمَالِهِ‏.‏
