The ruling on one who forgets some of the words of the adhan

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, if the mu'adhdhin forgets something from the adhan and then remembers it after the adhan is finished, does he repeat it?

Answer:
The answer is that it is valid. If he leaves out some of the words of the adhan, it is not valid. He must repeat the adhan. If it is soon after, he repeats the word he left out and whatever comes after it. If a long time has passed, he repeats the adhan from the beginning.
