The Recorded Adhan in Workplaces
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
He says: In our work center, when the time for the adhan arrives, there is a recording of a mu'adhdhin who performs the adhan.
The Shaykh:
Yes.
The questioner:
He says: In our workplace, when the time for the adhan arrives, it is recorded, and there is a mu'adhdhin who performs the adhan. Does this recorded adhan fall under the ruling of the adhan called by a man at its proper time, regarding the waiting after it, the supplication after it, and the reward associated with it?
The Shaykh:
This is not valid. It is not valid to use the mosque in this way if the heads of the entrances are not present, and the sunnah is not performed, and the obligatory acts are not performed. If the adhan is obligatory, then this tape does not suffice. It means that your inability has reached the point where one of you should calculate the reward and call the adhan, calculating the reward. The noble one says: This is not permissible. So what is related to some of the prizes, the noble one returns this as an error. And this is a negation of the honor. It may happen in the mosques later. It may happen gradually, and the noble one gives it in the mosques. And the noble imam, there is no power or strength except in Allah, so he negated the legislations and negated the sunnahs. And he writes things.

May Allah reward you
