The questioner : May the peace of Allah, His mercy, and His blessings be upon you, and likewise upon those present.
The Shaykh : And upon you be the peace of Allah, His mercy, and His blessings. One of you please respond.
The questioner : Is it permissible for the mu'adhdhin, after the adhan, to announce the prayer over the microphone once he has finished the adhan?
The Shaykh : Yes, the best guidance is the guidance of Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him). The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) informed the people of the prayer only through the adhan. Therefore, any words added after the adhan are a religious innovation (bid'ah). He should not announce it afterward; it is sufficient to say: "Hayya 'ala al-salah, hayya 'ala al-falah" (Come to prayer, come to success).
The questioner : May Allah reward you with good and reward you and all those present.
The Shaykh : And upon you be the peace of Allah, His mercy, and His blessings. One of you please respond.
