The call after the adhan
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The third question of Fatwa No. ( 16493 )
Q3: Is it correct that some people call out saying: “O the first of Allah’s creation” after the adhan and otherwise , knowing that the Messenger is not the first of Allah’s creation?
A3: It is not permissible to call out before the adhan or after it with any type of dhikr, and it is obligatory to restrict oneself to the adhan that Allah has prescribed, so whoever adds to it is an innovator; for His saying (peace and blessings be upon him):Sahih Muslim 1718b , and He said (peace and blessings be upon him): Sunan Abi Dawud 4607Sahih (Al-Albani) . Furthermore, this mentioned statement is false, for the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) is not the first of Allah’s creation, so this statement is a lie and an exaggeration regarding his right (peace and blessings be upon him), and he said (peace and blessings be upon him): Ash-Shama'il Al-Muhammadiyah 329Sahih (Zubair `Aliza'i) . And success is from Allah, and may Allah send prayers and blessings upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and his Companions.

He who did any act for which there is no sanction from our behalf, that is to be rejected.
من عمل عملاً ليس عليه أمرنا فهو ردAvoid novelties, for every novelty is an innovation
وإياكم ومحدثات الأمور فإن كل محدثة بدعةDo not extol me as the Christians extolled [Jesus] the son of Mary. I am merely a servant,’ so say: '[He is] Allah’s servant and His Messenger.’
لا تطروني كما أطرت النصارى ابن مريم، إنما أنا عبد فقولوا: عبد الله ورسوله
