The ruling on repeating the adhan broadcast from the radio

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, is it valid to repeat the adhan with the mu'adhdhin if the adhan is being broadcast directly from the radio in the middle of the city?

Answer:
Well, one feels the presence of Allah (Mighty and Majestic). But if the adhan is recorded, if it is not recorded, then this does not carry the ruling of the adhan delivered live by a mu'adhdhin. And if it is delivered live by a mu'adhdhin, then you follow him. But if it is from a recording, then the hadith regarding following the mu'adhdhin does not apply to it, because you do not have a mu'adhdhin; rather, this is a recorded voice.
