Is the adhan inside the mosque a religious innovation? And is it obligatory for the mu'adhdhin to climb the minaret?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh : No, it is not a religious innovation, because the adhan inside the mosque uses these loudspeakers, which suffice for climbing the minaret.

The questioner : The Sunnah, this Sunnah, was reported...

The Shaykh : We said that the adhan of Allah is established in places other than the mosque... Praise be to Allah, the intended purpose is achieved.

The questioner : ... .

The Shaykh : No, but is climbing the minaret intended for its own sake? That is, should the mu'adhdhin climb the minaret, or is it intended for something else, such that the voice is clearer and farther away? This is what appears to be the case. The end.
