Yahya related to me from Malik from Ibn Shihab from Humayd ibn
Abdar-Rahman ibn Awf that Abu Hurayra said, "Were it not that he would
be overburdening his community he (the Messenger of Allah, may Allah
bless him and grant him peace,) would have ordered them to use a
tooth-stick with each wudu."

Yahya related to me from Malik that Yahya ibn Said said, "The
Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, had
wanted to take two pieces of wood to strike them together to gather
people for the prayer, and Abdullah ibn Zayd al-Ansari, then of the
tribe of Harith ibn al-Khazraj, was shown two pieces of wood in his
sleep. He said, 'These are close to what the Messenger of Allah, may
Allah bless him and grant him peace, wants.' Then it was said, 'Do
you not call to the prayer?', so when he woke up he went to the
Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, and
mentioned the dream to him. The Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless
him and grant him peace, ordered the adhan."
