There are other documents to prove the fact that "Assalatu Khairum Minan Naum" was later added to the Azan. In fact it was Umar Ibn Khattab who ordered to include the phrase, "prayer is better than sleep" (Assalatu Khairum Minan Naum) in the Azan at Fajr. It is not pleasing for me to say " Assalatu Khairum Minan Naum" in the Azan of the prayer, because Aba Mahzureh has not brought this phrase in his hadith. Furthermore, Imam ash-Shafi‘i says in his Kitab al-Umm as such: The phrase Assalatu Khairum Minan Naum (Prayer is better than sleeping) was not part of the azan (calling for prayer) during the time of the Holy Prophet (PBUH) and it has been included in Azan later (1).
