Hadith: There is a prayer between every two Adhāns; there is a prayer between every two Adhāns." The third time, he said: "for whoever wills
عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ مُغَفَّلٍ رضي الله عنه قَالَ: قَالَ النَّبِيُّ صلى الله عليه وسلم:
«بَيْنَ كُلِّ أَذَانَيْنِ صَلَاةٌ، بَيْنَ كُلِّ أَذَانَيْنِ صَلَاةٌ» ثُمَّ قَالَ فِي الثَّالِثَةِ: «لِمَنْ شَاءَ».

‘Abdullāh ibn Mughaffal (may Allah be pleased with him) reported: The Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) said:
"There is a prayer between every two Adhāns; there is a prayer between every two Adhāns." The third time, he said: "for whoever wills."
[Authentic hadith] - [Narrated by Bukhari & Muslim] - [Sahih Bukhari - 627]
The Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) pointed out that there is a supererogatory prayer between every Adhān and Iqāmah, repeating this three times. He informed in the third time that this is recommended for whoever wants to offer this prayer.
Benefits from the Hadith
- Prayer between the Adhān and Iqāmah is recommended.
- It was part of the Prophet's guidance to repeat his statement, so as to make it heard and stress the significance of what he said.
- The "two Adhāns" refers to the Adhān and Iqāmah. They are called two Adhāns for its dominant usage, such as saying: the two moons (i.e., the sun and the moon) and the two ‘Umars (i.e., Abu Bakr and ‘Umar).
- The Adhān announces that the time of prayer has come, and the Iqāmah announces that prayer is about to be performed.
