Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, I entered the mosque and the mu'adhdhin had already started the adhan. When he reached the two testimonies, a severe coughing fit struck him and he was unable to complete the adhan, so he gestured to me and I completed it from where he stopped. Is my action correct?
Answer:
No, your action is not correct. The adhan is not to be performed by two people. If you had started from the beginning, you would have started from the beginning, and you do not build upon an interrupted adhan. Yes.
