Standing at the Adhan and Leaving the Mosque
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
And in the hadith the mu'adhdhin has taken charge and has a recitation, so is standing at the adhan and leaving considered imitating him, or is it more appropriate to stand until the mu'adhdhin finishes?
Answer:
It is more appropriate not to stand until the mu'adhdhin finishes. A person should be calm and follow the mu'adhdhin, and when he is done, he says: "There is no god but Allah alone, with no partner. His is the dominion and His is the praise, and He is over all things competent. O Allah, Lord of this perfect call and the established prayer, grant Muhammad the intercession and the excellence, and grant him the praised station that You promised him." So it is more appropriate that he sits, follows the mu'adhdhin, and says this supplication after the adhan is finished, because the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Whoever says this supplicationSahih al-Bukhari 4719."
And moving from one place to another in the mosque is permissible, even if the mu'adhdhin is calling the adhan. The only thing to be wary of is leaving the mosque after the adhan. So if a person has an excuse to leave, such as because he is the imam of another mosque, or because he has an appointment with someone in another mosque, or because he went to perform wudu' and will return, there is no harm in that; because he has an excuse. But if the leaving is without an excuse, then it is disliked or forbidden. For this reason, when Abu Hurayrah saw a man leave after the adhan, he said: "As for this one, he has disobeyed Abu al-Qasim (peace and blessings be upon him)."
So leaving without need is not appropriate; rather, it is either disliked or forbidden. Yes.
