My Muslim brother, when you hear Adhan - the Call to Salat, you should realise that this Call is addressed to you. So you should get up, give up your amusement and respond to Allah's Call which tells you: Come fast to the Salat, come fast to the Success and remember the saying of the Prophet (peace be upon him):“ Whoever said when he hears the Call, O Allah! Lord of this perfect Call and of the regular Salat which is going to be established. Kindly give Muhammad the right of intercession and superiority and send him to the best and the highest place in Paradise which You promised him,' he becomes eligible for my intercession on the Day of Judgment” (Al-Bukhari).
You may imagine the great reward when you supplicate according to that Hadith to become eligible for the intercession of the Noble Prophet (peace be upon him) . Not only this, but your sins too are forgiven when you repeat after the Mu'adhdhin (Call-maker), as is narrated in the Hadith:“ Whoever said when he hears the Mu'adhdhin (Call?maker), I testify that none has the right to be worshipped except Allah. He is Alone and has no partners with Him, and indeed Muhammad is His slave and His Messenger. I am pleased with Allah, as my Lord and with Muhammad as the Messenger. All his sins are forgiven even his sins are greater than the surf in the ocean” (Muslim).
And above all, remember that your supplication is never turned down between the Adhan and the Iqamah (the Call for starting the congregational Salat), as is narrated in the Hadith reported by Abu Dawud that Allah's Messenger (peace be upon him) said:“ The supplication between Adhan and Iqamah is never turned down” (Abu Dawud, At-Tirmidhi).
So you may imagine the extent of magnanimity and mercy. Can there be a gesture of generosity beyond that?
