Question:
After this, a message from the listener Ahmad Abd al-Rahman Abdullah from the Eastern Region. He asks and says: In the adhan, the mu'adhdhin says two takbirs the first time, while others say four takbirs. Which is correct? May Allah reward you with good.
Answer:
The stronger and correct position is four takbirs at the beginning of the adhan; because this is the adhan that was recited in Madinah during the time of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). It is the adhan of Bilal with the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). So it is stronger and more complete. Yes.
