Question:
May Allah reward you. If the mu'adhdhin is delayed in the adhan and about eleven minutes have passed of the time, does he call the adhan or wait for the iqamah and give it?
Answer:
If it causes confusion for the people of the town, and perhaps if it is the time of Fajr, the fasting people might be misled by his adhan, or the lazy ones might also be delayed, causing them to miss the congregation, then he does not call the adhan. It is sufficient, it is sufficient, the adhan of the mu'adhdhins who called at the proper time. Yes.
