Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. Regarding his saying (peace and blessings be upon him)
When you hear the Mu'adhdhin then say what he saysإذا سمعتم المؤذن فقولوا مثل ما يقول
Sunan an-Nasa'i 678Sahih (Darussalam)
, does that apply to both the adhan and the iqamah?

Answer:
This has been mentioned before. Yes, it applies to both the adhan and the iqamah, except for what is established by evidence where one says, "There is no power and no strength except in Allah," and where one says, "May Allah establish it and make it permanent." Only these are exceptions. As for the rest, one says what the mu'adhdhin and the one who gives the iqamah say. Yes.
