Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, does the sitting or pause between the adhan and the iqamah have a specific time?
The Shaykh:
Therefore, they said that it is in accordance with the Sunnah, and it does not align with the Sunnah unless the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) approved it. Yes.
The questioner:
He says, may Allah preserve you, does the sitting or pause between the adhan and the iqamah have a specific time?
The Shaykh:
It depends on the need; it is lengthened or shortened according to the need. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), when he saw that they had gathered, would hasten, and when he saw that they were delayed, he would delay the iqamah, so it is according to the need. Yes.
