from his followers, and it was mentioned about Imām al-Ḥaramayn that he found the statement "during the adhān" unlikely, then he refuted it by saying: "This is not far-fetched; rather, it is the sunnah, as it has been established in the ḥadīth of Ibn ʿAbbās that he said to a muʾadhdhin on a rainy day—which was a Friday—'When you say: I bear witness that Muḥammad is the Messenger of Allāh, do not say: Come to prayer, say: Pray in your homes.'" It was narrated by the two Shaykhs." I said: It is also referenced in "al-Irwāʾ" (554). Al-Ḥāfiẓ in "al-Fatḥ" (2/98) quoted al-Nawawī after he mentioned his permission for this addition in the adhān and at its end, saying: "But after it is better to complete the structure of the adhān." I did not see it in "al-Majmūʿ." And Allāh knows best. Know that in the sunnah there is another concession, which is combining the two prayers due to rain by advancing the time, and the predecessors acted upon it. I have detailed this in various places, including what will come under ḥadīth (2837). This concession complements the previous one, as the former is when people are in their homes, and this one is when they are in the mosque and the rain is pouring. The first concession relieved them from the obligation of the first prayer in the mosque, and the second concession relieved them from the obligation of performing the other prayer at its designated time by combining it with the first in the mosque. And truthful is Allāh, the one who says: "And who is better in judgment than Allāh for a people who are certain?" (Sūrah al-Māʾidah, verse 50).
