Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Is it permissible to cite the statement of a scholar among the scholars that the adhan of Uthman (may Allah be pleased with him) for the Friday prayer, after the era of the Companions, is considered an innovation?
Answer:
This is not a scholar who says that the first adhan, which Uthman (may Allah be pleased with him), the third of the Rightly Guided Caliphs, ordered during the time of the Muhajireen and the Ansar, was an innovation. It was ordered during the time of the Muhajireen and the Ansar, and they did not object to it. So he is not a scholar in this issue, even if he is a scholar in other matters, but he was ignorant in this issue. Yes.
