Is it permissible to eat and drink during the adhan?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question : Please, peace be upon you. This is the San Hadi program. Yes, Shaykh Muhammad, regarding Ramadan, the sister asking us on the phone says: Is it permissible to eat and drink with the Fajr adhan, O Shaykh?

Answer : By Allah, I cannot determine it by the adhan, because some mu'adhhdhins are late and some are early. But the calendar is in your hands. The Umm al-Qura calendar is five minutes early for the Fajr adhan. So, if a person eats one or two minutes after the time in the calendar, there is no blame on him. As for the mu'adhdhin, I cannot tie this ruling to the mu'adhdhin, because the mu'adhdhin may be early or late. May Allah reward you, and thank you, sister.
