What is the ruling on repeating the adhan at the same time as the adhan due to a malfunction in the loudspeakers?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : May the peace, mercy, and blessings of Allah be upon you, esteemed Shaykh.

The Shaykh : And upon you be peace, and Allah's mercy and blessings.

The questioner : What is the ruling on repeating the adhan if the loudspeakers are malfunctioning at that time, and the repetition is at the same time as the adhan?

The Shaykh : Do you mean he called the adhan first without a loudspeaker?

The questioner : Yes, there was a malfunction.

The Shaykh : Yes, but...

The questioner : And he repeated the adhan at the same time.

The Shaykh : I am asking: are the mosques around it audible? Or is there only this mosque?

The questioner : There are mosques, but this one had a malfunction.

The Shaykh : I understand, the loudspeakers in this mosque malfunctioned.

The questioner : Yes.

The Shaykh : And he called the adhan without a loudspeaker.

The questioner : Yes.

The Shaykh : But there are mosques around it that may have called the adhan.

The questioner : Yes.

The Shaykh : His first adhan is sufficient, and there is no need to repeat it. However, if there were no other mosque, then he should repeat it so that people know the time for prayer has entered.
