Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. In some schools, they have a small child call the adhan to train him, and he makes many mistakes. Is his adhan valid?

Answer:
It is valid if he is of discerning age. However, if he makes a mistake that changes the meaning, his adhan is not valid. But if the mistake does not change the meaning, there is no harm.
