Ruling on Delaying the Adhan by Five Minutes for a Reason

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He asks Your Eminence, saying: Is it permissible to delay the adhan by five minutes for a reason?

Answer:
The matter is broad; five minutes is a short time and does not cause harm if one is occupied with something. However, the most cautious and best course for the believer is to maintain the practice and call the adhan with the people. Delaying by five minutes or three minutes does not cause harm, if Allah wills.

The presenter: May Allah reward you with good.
