Although the phrase of wilaya i.e. ''Ashhadu anna 'aliayyan waliullah'', (I bear witness that 'Ali is the wali of Allah) has been recited in the Adhan of some of the Imamiyya since early times, it is not presented in Imamiyya sources as being a part of Adhan. It is recited after the third phrase two times. | Although the phrase of wilaya i.e. ''Ashhadu anna 'aliayyan waliullah'', (I bear witness that 'Ali is the wali of Allah) has been recited in the Adhan of some of the Imamiyya since early times,<ref>al-Shaykh al-Saduq.

[[Ibn Nubah]], the [[Mu'azzin]] of Imam 'Ali (a) used to recite this phrase in Adhan without objection from Imam Ali (a). According to Shi'a reports, this phrase had been a part of Adhan until 'Umar omitted it due to his belief that it would weaken people's motivation for [[Jihad]]. | The sixth phrase i.e. ''Hayya 'ala khayril'amal'' (Hurry toward the best of deeds) belongs particularly to the [[Shi'a]], and is a distinctive characteristic of this sect.<ref> Sayyid Murtada.
