The Ruling on the Unified Adhan Using Radio
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
This is a questioner for the program Al-Haqiqah from Jordan. He says: Your Eminence, what is the ruling on the unified adhan? For example, a radio device is connected to a mosque, and that mosque gives the adhan, broadcasting it to more than two hundred mosques. Is that permissible? And the hadith of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) says:?
Answer:
If there is a need for it, I am not aware of any harm, if there is a need for it.
As for when mu'adhdhins are available, the sunnah (recommended practice) is for each mosque to have a mu'adhdhin. This is the sunnah; because of the good and great benefits in raising the adhan, and the reward for the mu'adhdhins, as mentioned in the hadith and others.
So the sunnah is for each mosque to have a known mu'adhdhin who is trustworthy and has a good voice; this is what is prescribed, and this is what was known in the time of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and the time of the Rightly Guided Caliphs and the righteous Salaf (the earliest generations) after him until this day. The sunnah is for each mosque to have a mu'adhdhin, but if there is a need for this, such that no mu'adhdhins are found and there is a need to record the adhan for several mosques due to this necessity, I am not aware of any harm in it. Yes.
The presenter: May Allah reward you.

The mu'adhdhins will have the longest necks on the Day of Resurrection
