Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
A questioner says: Is it permissible for the imam of a mosque to designate a day of the week, known to the congregation of the mosque, to be dedicated to bringing in someone to call the Muslims to Allah? And is there any harm in such a designation?

Answer:
If the da'i is not available except on this day, or it is not possible for him except on this day, or the people do not gather and increase in number except on a specific day, there is no harm. If the choice of the day has a reason, there is no harm in that. Yes.
