In our country, the call to prayer for Fajr is made with only one adhan. Is the tathwib included in it?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : If the second adhan for Fajr does not include the tathwib, "Prayer is better than sleep," and we have only one adhan in our country, should the mu'adhdhin say it or leave it out? And if he says it, has he introduced a religious innovation?
The Shaykh : You did not understand.
The questioner : If the second adhan for Fajr does not include the tathwib, "Prayer is better than sleep," and we have only one adhan in our country, should the mu'adhdhin say it or leave it out? And if he says it, has he introduced a religious innovation?
The Shaykh : That is, he calls the second adhan.
The questioner : Yes.
The Shaykh : And he does not call the first adhan.
The questioner : It is one adhan.
The Shaykh : And we know, and you know, that the tathwib, "Prayer is better than sleep," is a recommended practice in the first adhan. So since the first adhan, which contains the tathwib, is not called, should the tathwib be substituted in the second adhan, which does not contain the tathwib? Is that your question?
The questioner : Yes.
The Shaykh : Answer: This is not permissible. Either the first adhan is called with the tathwib, followed by the second adhan without the tathwib, or one adhan is fabricated from two. This is contrary to the Sunnah and an innovation in the religion of Allah.
The questioner: May Allah reward you with good.
