Question:
Is there a basis in the language of the Arabs for the mu'adhdhin saying, "I bear witness that Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah," with the lam of "Muhammad" open?
Answer:
It is weak. There is a weak basis for it, but the known and famous language of the Arabs is that this is a raised nominative sentence, so "Messenger" must be in the nominative case. The one who says this should be informed, clarified, and made clear to him.
