Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. This questioner from India says: We have a student of knowledge in that country who says that the first adhan on Friday is a bid'ah (religious innovation) like the bid'ah of the Mawlid. He says: Is it permissible to seek knowledge from this person?
Answer:
No, it is not a bid'ah. Uthman, the third of the Rightly Guided Caliphs, ordered the first adhan. And the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "FollowJami` at-Tirmidhi 2676Sahih (Darussalam) after me." So this man is ignorant. He does not know the Sunnah of the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him), nor does he know the right of the Rightly Guided Caliphs. Yes.
