Does the loudspeaker take the place of conveying the message behind the imam?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : If we say, O Shaykh, that Abu Bakr (may Allah be pleased with him) said the takbir in response to the takbir of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), and someone is speaking through the loudspeaker now in the present time, is this the intended meaning, or is the intended meaning the same... Abu Bakr... the intended meaning is the same: conveying the voice of Abu Bakr to the Companions... Shaykh, is this a recommended practice (sunnah) or not?
The Shaykh : I mean, if someone were to say that this loudspeaker has a basis, he would be correct that it has a basis. This is indicated by the choice of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) of Bilal (may Allah be pleased with him) for the adhan, because he had a more resonant voice than Abdullah ibn Zayd, who saw the adhan. Likewise, in the Battle of Hunayn, he ordered al-Abbas to call out because he had a loud voice. And likewise in the story of Abu Bakr, Abu Bakr would serve as a means to convey the takbir of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him). Yes.
