‏ ‏حَدَّثَنَا ‏ ‏سُلَيْمَانُ ‏ ‏حَدَّثَنَا ‏ ‏إِسْمَاعِيلُ ‏ ‏حَدَّثَنِي ‏ ‏حُمَيْدٌ ‏ ‏عَنْ ‏ ‏أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ ‏ ‏أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ‏ ‏صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ‏ ‏كَانَ ‏ ‏إِذَا غَزَا قَوْمًا لَمْ يَغْزُ بِنَا لَيْلًا حَتَّى يُصْبِحَ فَإِنْ سَمِعَ أَذَانًا كَفَّ عَنْهُمْ وَإِنْ لَمْ يَسْمَعْ أَذَانًا ‏ ‏أَغَارَ ‏ ‏عَلَيْهِمْ ‏

English Translation

Sulayman narrated to us, Isma'il narrated to us, Humayd narrated to me, from Anas ibn Malik (رضي الله عنه), that the Prophet ﷺ, when he would march against a people, would not attack them at night until morning came. If he heard the adhan, he would refrain from them. If he did not hear the adhan, he would attack after dawn.
