Sahih al-Bukhari 614 (Book 10, Hadith 26)
Adhan for the (Zuhr) prayer. The Prophet (ﷺ) said to him, “Let it become cooler.” Then he again wanted
to pronounce the Adhan but the Prophet; said to him, “Let it become cooler.” The Mu’adh-dhin again
wanted to pronounce the Adhan for the prayer but the Prophet (ﷺ) said, “Let it become cooler,” till the
shadows of the hillocks become equal to their sizes. The Prophet (ﷺ) added, “The severity of the heat is
from the raging of Hell.”
Sahih al-Bukhari 614 (Book 10, Hadith 26)
The above hadith is from the Sahih al-Buhari collection of hadiths. Within the Islamic scholarly tradition, few works hold as much weight as Sahih al-Bukhari. This vast compilation, assembled by the Persian scholar al-Bukhārī circa 847, is a cornerstone of Sunni faith and practice. It is one of the six canonical hadith collections known collectively as the Kutub al-Sittah. Imam al-Bukhārī’s work is particularly celebrated for its author’s stringent criteria in verifying the chain of narration (isnad), resulting in a trusted body of over 7,500 hadiths organized into 97 distinct chapters that cover every aspect of life.
