وعن ابن عمر رضي الله عنهما قال‏:‏ كان لرسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم مؤذنان‏:‏ بلال وابن أم مكتوم‏.‏ فقال رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم ‏

‏ إن بلالا يؤذن بليل فكلوا واشربوا حتى يؤذن ابن أم مكتوم‏

‏ قال ولم يكن بينهما إلا أن ينزل هذا ويرقى هذا، ‏(‏‏(‏متفق عليه‏)‏‏)‏

English translation

Ibn 'Umar (May Allah be pleased with them) reported:

The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) had two Mu'adhdhin: Bilal and Ibn Umm Maktum (May Allah be pleased with them). The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said, "Bilal proclaims Adhan [call to Salat (prayer)] at fag end of night, so eat and drink till Ibn Umm Maktum pronounces Adhan." Ibn 'Umar (May Allah be pleased with them) added: And the gap between their Adhan was not more than the time spent in one's getting down and the other's climbing (the minaret). [Al-Bukhari and Muslim].
