Is there a way out for one who elongates the baa in the adhan when saying Allahu Akbar?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : Shaykh, may Allah bless you, we found a way out for the common people in their saying: "Allah and greatness" and "Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah." Is there a way out in elongating: "Allah Akbar"?
The Shaykh : There is no way out for it.
The questioner : Because many people say this and do not repeat the adhan, and the adhan is obligatory, and a person is confused if he prays in the mosque?
The Shaykh : Praise be to Allah, as long as the adhan is a collective obligation, and there are mu'adhdhins in the town whose adhan is heard in every place, that is sufficient. But the problem is if he says it during the prayer; that is the problem. Some imams, when they prostrate, say: "Allah Akbar." This is not fulfilling the obligatory.
The questioner : So what is the solution?
The Shaykh : The solution is that he is warned, and it is said: This is not permissible.
The questioner : Is this specific prayer invalid?
The Shaykh : It may be said that this is an ignorant person who does not know, and he is excused, especially on the view that the takbirs other than the takbirat al-ihram are a recommended practice.
The student: Okay.
The Shaykh : Yes.
The student: Okay, we have become three.
The Shaykh : Yes.
The Shaykh : There is no way out for it.
