Is it correct for the mu'adhdhin to say "Allah Akbar" in the adhan?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh : No, this is not a language; it is a pure error. His adhan is not valid. The one who says "Allah Akbar" does not have a valid adhan, because this is a distortion that destroys the meaning. "Akbar" means: its meaning is the plural.
The questioner : ... .
The Shaykh : Kabr, which is the drum.
The questioner : ... Allah Akbar.
The Shaykh : Yes, indeed. And some of them lengthen the hamzah of the Glorious Name: "Allahu Akbar," asking in a questioning tone: "Is Allah the Greatest, or is He not the Greatest?" And with this, the lesson ends, because we have another lesson after the prayer... Yes.
