In this chapter, there is also a narration from Ibn Mas'ud, 'A'ishah, Unaysah, Anas, Abu Dharr, and Samurah.

The hadith of Ibn 'Umar is hasan sahih.

The scholars have differed regarding the adhan at night:

Some of the scholars said: If the mu'adhdhin gives the adhan at night, it suffices him and he does not repeat it. This is the view of Malik, Ibn al-Mubarak, al-Shafi'i, Ahmad, and Ishaq.

And some of the scholars said: If he gives the adhan at night, he repeats it. This is the view of Sufyan al-Thawri.

And Hammad ibn Salamah narrated from Ayyub, from Nafi', from Ibn 'Umar: That Bilal gave the adhan at night, so the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, commanded him to call out: "Indeed, the servant slept."(1)

--------------------------------------------
(1) Its narrators are trustworthy, the narrators of the Sahih, except that Hammad ibn Salamah erred in raising it (to the Prophet) by the consensus of the hadith scholars, and Sa'id ibn Zarbi followed him in that, as mentioned by al-Bayhaqi and al-Daraqutni, and he is munkar in hadith. The correct version is its mursal form, as will come later.

And it was also recorded by 'Abd ibn Humayd (782), Abu Dawud (532), al-Tahawi in "Sharh Ma'ani al-Athar" 1/139, al-Daraqutni 1/244, and al-Bayhaqi 1/383 via multiple chains from Hammad ibn Salamah, with this chain of transmission.

And it was recorded in a longer form than what is here by al-Bayhaqi 1/383-384 via the route of Ibrahim ibn 'Abd al-'Aziz ibn Abi Mahdhurah, and al-Daraqutni 1/244 via the route of 'Amir ibn Mudrik, both from 'Abd al-'Aziz ibn Abi Rawwad, from Nafi', from Ibn 'Umar: That Bilal... and they mentioned it. Ibrahim ibn 'Abd al-'Aziz is weak, and 'Amir ibn Mudrik is lenient in hadith, and both erred in it. The correct version is the narration of those who narrated it from 'Abd al-'Aziz ibn Abi Rawwad, from Nafi': That a mu'adhdhin of 'Umar gave the adhan at night, =
