Arabic Text
حَدَّثَنَا عَمْرُو بْنُ رَافِعٍ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ الْمُبَارَكِ عَنْ مَعْمَرٍ عَنْ الزُّهْرِيِّ عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ الْمُسَيَّبِ عَنْ بِلَالٍأَنَّهُ أَتَى النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يُؤْذِنُهُ بِصَلَاةِ الْفَجْرِ فَقِيلَ هُوَ نَائِمٌ فَقَالَ الصَّلَاةُ خَيْرٌ مِنْ النَّوْمِ الصَّلَاةُ خَيْرٌ مِنْ النَّوْمِ فَأُقِرَّتْ فِي تَأْذِينِ الْفَجْرِ فَثَبَتَ الْأَمْرُ عَلَى ذَلِكَ
English Translation
Telah menceritakan kepada kami ['Amru bin Rafi'] berkata, telah menceritakan kepada kami [Abdullah bin Al Mubarak] dari [Ma'mar] dari [Az Zuhri] dari [Sa'id bin Al Musayyab] dari [Bilal] bahwa ia mendatangi Nabi shallallahu 'alaihi wasallam untuk adzan shalat subuh, lalu dikatakan kepadanya: "Beliau sedang tidur." Maka bilal pun berkata; "ASH SHALAATU KHAIRUN MINAN NAUM. ASH SHALAATU KHAIRUN MINAN NAUM (Shalat itu lebih baik daripada tidur. Shalat itu lebih baik daripada tidur)." Hingga lafadz itu ditetapkan untuk dikumandangkan pada adzan subuh dan perkaranya menjadi tetap seperti itu."

Imam Ibn Majah compiled the last of the six major hadith collections (Kutub al-Sittah). He travelled widely to collect hadiths — through Iraq, Basra, Syria, Egypt, and Arabia. His collection contains unique narrations not found in the other five collections, though scholars note some weaker chains.
Ibn Majah's collection was later added to the Kutub al-Sittah by Imam al-Maqdisi. It contains approximately 4,341 hadiths including narrations unique to this collection.
