Is the Sunnah in the adhan to be slow or to be quick?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Some scholars disapprove of the adhan in the Sacred Precinct; because the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said:Bulugh al-Maram 2:59, and some of them make the adhan like the iqamah, meaning: there is no slowness in it?
Answer:
No, the Sunnah is to be slow in the adhan, and to be quick in the iqamah; this is the Sunnah. The mu'adhdhins in the Sacred Precinct prolong it and do not shorten it, so their concern is with the length.
Some scholars disapprove of the adhan in the Sacred Precinct; because the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said:
When you announce the Adhan, utter deliberately and when you pronounce the Iqamah utter quickly
إذا أذَّنْتَ فترسَّل، وإذا أقمت فاحدرAnswer:
No, the Sunnah is to be slow in the adhan, and to be quick in the iqamah; this is the Sunnah. The mu'adhdhins in the Sacred Precinct prolong it and do not shorten it, so their concern is with the length.
