The Mu'adhdhin or Imam Hurrying When Time Is Short
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: What is the ruling on the mu'adhdhin or the imam hurrying when there is not enough time left for the adhan or the iqamah, as he wants to catch the time?
Answer:
The imam delays until the time is about to end, why? If he delays, the people praying in congregation do not wait for him. If he delays to the point where the time is feared to end, meaning they pray and do not wait for him, it is not permissible for him to delay to that extent. Yes.
