Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Is the adhan a collective obligation for the congregations or for the people of the town in general?
Answer:
It is a collective obligation for every area where the other adhan is not heard. Every area with a mosque has a collective obligation upon it. However, if the mu'adhdhin makes the adhan audible to everyone, that is sufficient, and it becomes a recommended practice for the rest. If the mu'adhdhin has a loud voice that makes the adhan audible to everyone, it becomes a recommended practice for the rest.
