The Adhan of Children for the Purpose of Teaching

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, is the adhan of children accepted on the grounds of teaching them, or should they be disciplined and taught?

Answer:
Meaning, they call the adhan; there is no harm, there is no harm. It is valid for a child to call the adhan; the adhan is valid from a child who can distinguish right from wrong, as the jurists have mentioned. The adhan is valid from a child who can distinguish, so there is no harm. You can entrust one of the students to call the adhan, or have them take turns in order to learn the adhan. That is a good thing. Yes.
