عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ
قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «الْإِمَامُ ضَامِنٌ وَالْمُؤَذِّنُ مؤتمن الله أَرْشِدِ الْأَئِمَّةَ وَاغْفِرْ لِلْمُؤَذِّنِينَ» وَفِي أُخْرَى لَهُ بِلَفْظِ المصابيح
Abu Hurayrah reported God’s Messenger as saying, “The imam is responsible and the muadhdhin is trusted. O God, guide the imams and forgive the muadhdhins.” Ahmad, Abu Dawud, Tirmidhi and Shafii transmitted it, and in another version by Shafii the wording of al-Masabih is used.
