The Ruling on the First Adhan for Jumu'ah
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. This questioner says: What is the ruling on what is called the first adhan for Jumu'ah? He says: Did the scholars discuss this issue and state that it is not permissible?
Answer:
I do not know of any precise scholar who has spoken on this. This is from the Sunnah of the Rightly Guided Caliphs, because it was 'Umar ibn al-Khattab (may Allah be pleased with him), the third of the Rightly Guided Caliphs, who ordered it. The people were occupied with their farms and markets, so 'Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) established this adhan to alert them to the nearness of the Jumu'ah prayer, so that they would leave their work and go to their prayer. It is a Sunnah from the Sunnah of the Rightly Guided Caliphs, and no one denies it except one who is either ignorant or one who pretends to be a scholar. Yes.
