Forgetting the Mu'adhdhin's saying "Prayer is better than sleep" in the Fajr adhan

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you, Your Eminence, father. The questioner says: If the mu'adhdhin forgets to say "Prayer is better than sleep" in the Fajr adhan, does he repeat the adhan, or is his adhan valid?

Answer:
If he remembers shortly before leaving the place of the adhan, he says that phrase and what follows it, and he builds upon the beginning of the adhan. However, if a long time has passed, he must repeat the adhan from the beginning. Yes.
