Is it in the Sunnah to pause between the takbirs in the adhan?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, the questioner says: I saw the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) in a dream calling the adhan, and he was pausing between the takbirs, as well as the rest of the adhan. Is this the Sunnah?

Answer:
Regarding the adhan, whether one pauses between the takbirs or connects them, the matter is broad in this regard, and praise be to Allah. Seeing the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) in a dream is a true vision for one who knows the characteristics of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), because Satan does not take his form. As for one who does not know the characteristics of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), it is not necessary that his vision be correct, because Satan may come to him and claim to be the Messenger of Allah, and the person does not know, because he does not know the characteristics of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him).
