Question:
This questioner, whose name is symbolized by (A. A. M) from Sudan, says: We have a mu'adhdhin in the mosque who, whenever he comes to call the adhan at any of the times, begins with the noble verse, [Surah Fussilat: 33]. What is the ruling on this, O Shaykh?
Answer:
This is not prescribed. I say: it is not prescribed. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) did not do it, nor did his Companions. One begins with (Allahu Akbar). The adhan begins with (Allahu Akbar). Yes.

And who is better in speech than one who invites to Allah and does righteousness and says, "Indeed, I am of the Muslims."
وَمَنْ أَحْسَنُ قَوْلًا مِمَّنْ دَعَا إِلَى اللَّهِ وَعَمِلَ صَالِحًا وَقَالَ إِنَّنِي مِنَ الْمُسْلِمِينَAnswer:
