Saying the takbir with a single breath in the adhan

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: Is it disliked to say "Allahu Akbar, Allahu Akbar" in one breath in the adhan?

Answer:
The known and preferable practice is to separate the takbir, part from part. We cannot answer [otherwise], because if one joins them, it becomes a single word, whereas the takbir consists of four words.
