The interval between Bilal's adhan and Ibn Umm Maktum's adhan

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
This questioner says: Between Ibn Umm Maktum's adhan and Bilal's adhan (may Allah be pleased with them both), there was a span of about fifty verses. The verses vary from Medinan verses to Meccan verses.

The Shaykh:
No one has said, and I do not recall, that the interval between Bilal's adhan and Ibn Umm Maktum's adhan is the same as the time between finishing the suhur and the iqamah. As for the interval between the two adhans, he says:
no more between than the time it takes for one to come down and the other to go upبينهما إلا أن ينزل هذا ويصعد هذا
Sunan an-Nasa'i 639Sahih (Darussalam)
This is the length of fifty verses. Yes.

The presenter:
May Allah reward you.

The Shaykh:
That is sufficient, if Allah wills.

The presenter:
May Allah keep you safe and bless you.

The Shaykh:
You are taking the knowledge all in one day. Little by little.
