Fourteen Madani Pearls of Azan 1. If the primary Jama’at of five Fard 6alah including Jumu’ah is held in the Masjid at stipulated time, it is Sunnat-eMuakkadah to call out Azan for them, and its emphasis is like that of Wajib. If Azan is not called out, all the people over there will be sinner. 'XUU H 0XNKWDU PDŐ? 5DGG XO 0XKWDU YRO SS

2. If somebody offers 6alah at home in the city, the Azan of the local Masjid will be enough but it is Mustahab to call out Azan. LELG SS

3. If somebody is out of the city or in a village, orchard or farm, the Azan of the city/village will be enough provided these places are near the city/village; but it is better to say Azan. However, if these places are not near, that Azan will not be enough. Here, nearness means that the voice of Azan (given in city/village) could reach there. )DWDZD H ŐŒ$ODPJHHUL SS YRO

4. If a traveller did not call out Azan or Iqamat or both, it is Makruh; if he calls out only Iqamat, there is no repugnance, but it is better to say Azan also, whether he is alone or with other companions. 'XUU H 0XNKWDU PDŐ? 5DG GXO 0XÎĽWDU YRO SS

5. Call out Azan after the time has started. If it is called out before the time begins or if the time starts during the Azan, the Azan should be repeated in both the cases. ŐŒ$ODPJHHUL YRO SS The Muazzin should make a habit of ascertaining the timings of Salah with the help of timetable. At some places, the Muazzin starts calling out Azan before the time begins. It is a Madani request to the Imams as well as the Masjid committee to keep an eye on this matter. 9

2. Muqtadis should never reply to the Azan of Khutbah. It is most cautious to do so. However, there is no harm if the reply to Azan or supplication (between two Khutbat) is made in heart without calling out any word with the tongue. However, if the Imam replies to the Azan or makes supplication even with the tongue, it is quite permissible. )DWDZD 5DÎ?DZL\\DK YRO SS

3. There is a commandment to reply for the hearer of Azan. $ODPJHHUL YRO SS A Junub (the one who is to do Ghusl because of intercourse or nocturnal emission) should also reply to Azan. However, a woman undergoing menses or post-natal bleeding, audience of Khu৏bah, performers of funeral 6alah, those having intercourse or those passing stool or urine need not to reply. 'XUU H 0XNKWDU YRO SS

4. When Azan is going on, one should stop every type of work such as talking, Salam, reply to Salam and even recitation of the Holy Quran etc. for the duration in which Azan is being called out. Listen to the Azan attentively and make its reply. Do also the same while Iqamat is going on. 'XU H 0XNKWDU PDŐ? 5DGG XO 0XKWDU YRO SS ŐŒ$ODPJHHUL YRO SS

6. Iqamat is the right of the person who called out Azan. However, with the consent of the one who calls out Azan, someone else can also say Iqamat. If the Iqamat is called out without the permission of the Muazzin (the one who called out Azan) and he resented it, then it is Makruh. ŐŒ$ODPJLUL YRO SS

7. If a person comes during Iqamat, it is Makruh for him to wait whilst standing, instead, he should sit down. Similarly, the people who are already sitting in the Masjid should also keep seated; all should stand when the Mukabbir says h hÝ hh Ý h Ƹ . This ruling also applies to the Imam. LELG SS

For a pause between Durood Sharif and Azan, make the following announcement: ‘In the honour of Azan, stop talking and other activities and earn hoard of good deeds by replying to Azan.’

Then, call out Azan. Likewise, make the following announcement between Durood and Iqamat: ‘Make the intention of I’tikaf, if you have a mobile phone, please switch it off.’ I have made the Madani request of reciting Tasmiyah and Durood Sharif before Azan and Iqamat in the desire of earning perpetual reward. As for the suggestion of a pause (between Durood Sharif and Azan / Iqamat), it is taken from Fatawa-eRazawiyyah. Therefore, replying to a question, Imam-e-Ahl-eSunnat Æ Ȼ džÅ ƅ ȜÈȦÄȒÄʋȻ Ţǀ ü Ä ǾÄljȻ ƣ Ä È §Ä said, ‘There is no harm in reciting Durood Sharif before Iqamat but there should be a pause between them or the tone of Durood Sharif should be so different from that of Iqamat 17

Rebuttal of this Satanic Whisper If the principle is accepted that doing any such act not done in that blessed era is a misleading innovation and a sin, the whole existing system will be distorted. Just 12 examples out of innumerable ones are being presented making it clear that these acts were not performed in that era, but have been adopted by every one in the present era. 1. +ajjaj Bin Yusuf introduced diacritical marks in the Holy Quran in the year 95A.H. 2. He also introduced the use of full stops at the end of each Ayah. 18

such new act which Shari’ah did not prohibit is a good innovation and absolutely permissible and, it is an undeniable fact that the recitation of Durood Sharif before Azan was not forbidden in any +DGHHV. Therefore, absence of prohibition automatically Ă„Ç­ led to permission.

In other words, whoever promotes any good act in Islam deserves great reward. Similarly, without any doubt, the fortunate person who developed the trend of reciting Durood before Azan and Iqamat also deserves perpetual reward. He as well as the Muslims acting on that act till the Day of Judgement will attain reward without any reduction in any one’s reward.

Beyond doubt, the foregoing Hadees is true. In fact, the word ‘Bid’at’ mentioned in the Hadees refers to Bid’at-e-Sayyi’ah, (misleading innovation) and indeed every Bid’at that contradicts or removes a Sunnah is a misleading innovation. Therefore, Sayyiduna Shaykh ‘Abdul Haq Muhaddis Dihlvi writes, ‘Any Bid’at that complies with the principles of Sunnah and does not contradict the Shari’ah or Sunnah is a Bid’at-e-Hasanah. The Bid’ah that contradicts Shari’ah and Sunnah is a Bid’at-e-Dalalat, i.e. a misleading innovation.’ $VKLŐ?DW XO
