Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, he says: If the mu'adhdhin is in a state of major ritual impurity, is it permissible for him to enter the mosque to call the adhan?

Answer:
Yes, he enters the mosque because he is not sitting. What is forbidden is sitting in the mosque. As for passing through for a need and then leaving, there is nothing wrong with it, and the adhan does not involve sitting.
