Answers: 1Subcategories: 12The Call for Prayer
Is It Permissible to Call the Adhan in a Singing Tone ?
It is disliked to sing the Adhan in the sense of elongating the words excessively without changing the meaning. If the meaning is changed, then it becomes prohibited and the Adhan is not correct in this case.22,933The electrical current was cut off, then it was restored; should the adhaan be repeated?
10,384Is Adhan Necessary for Prayer?
1- The correct view is that adhan is fard kifayah (a communal obligation); if someone who is competent does it, the rest are absolved of sin. 2- If a person starts to pray without the adhan or iqamah, whether out of forgetfulness or ignorance, or for some other reason, the prayer is still valid. 3- If a muadhdhin gives the adhan in one neighborhood and all the residents can hear it, that is sufficient.

There is no du’a after the iqamah. 5. It is Sunnah to repeat what the muadhdhin is saying.
