The scholars differed concerning the ruling on repeating after the
muezzin and repeating the words of the adhaan. The correct view –
which is the view of the majorityof scholars – is that repeating it is
mustahabb,not obligatory. This is the view of the Maalikis, Shaafa'is
and Hanbalis.
Al-Nawawi (may Allaah have mercy on him) said in al-Majmoo' (3/127):
Our view is that repeating(the words of the adhaan)is Sunnah, not
obligatory. This is the view of the majority of scholars. Al-Tahhaawi
narrated thatsome of the salaf held a different view and said that it
is obligatory. End quote.
In al-Mughni (1/256) it is narrated that Imam Ahmad said: If he does
not repeat his words there is nothing wrong with that. End quote.
This is indicated by the words of the Prophet (peace and blessings of
Allaah be upon him) to Maalik ibn al-Huwayrith and those who were with
him: "When the time for prayer comes, let one of you give the adhaan
and let the oldest of you lead you in prayer."
This indicates that repeating the words of the adhaan is not
obligatory. This conclusion is based on thefact that the Prophet
(peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) was teaching them, and in
thiscase there was a need to explain everything they needed to know.
This delegation of people may not have had any knowledge of what the
Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said about
repeating the words of the adhaan, and the fact that the Prophet
(peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) did not mention it, even
though there may have been a need to explain it to them, and this
delegation stayed with him for twenty days then left, indicates that
repeating the words of the adhaan is not obligatory. This is the most
correct view. End quote from al-Sharh al-Mumti' (2/75).
Maalik narrated in al-Muwatta' (1/103) from Ibn Shihaab that Tha'labah
ibn Abi Maalik al-Qurazi told him: At the time of 'Umar ibn
al-Khattaab they would pray on Friday until 'Umarcame out. When 'Umar
came out and sat on the minbar and the muezzin gave the adhaan,
Tha'labah said: We would sit and talk, then when the muezzins fell
silent and 'Umar stood up to deliver the khutbah, we would listen
attentively and none of us would speak.
Ibn Shihaab said: When the imam comes out, prayer should stop, and
when he speaks, speakingshould stop.
Shaykh al-Albaani (may Allaah have mercy on him) said in Tamaam al-Minnah (340):
This report indicates that it is not obligatory to repeat the words of
the muezzin, because what was done at the time of 'Umar was that
people spoke during the adhaan, and 'Umar did not say anything about
that. I have often been asked about the evidence that repeating the
words of the adhaan is not obligatory, and I have replied in this
manner. End quote.
Based on the above, thereis no sin on the one who does not repeat the
words of the muezzin, whether that is because he is busy with eating
or anything else. But by doing that he is missing out on a great
reward with Allaah.
Muslim (385) narrated that 'Umar ibn al-Khattaab (may Allaah be
pleased with him) said:The Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of
Allaah be upon him) said: "If the muezzin says, 'Allaahu akbar,
Allaahu akbar (Allaah is most great, Allaah is most great),' and one
of you says, 'Allaahu akbar, Allaahu akbar (Allaah is most great,
Allaah is mostgreat)'; then he says, 'Ashhadu an laa ilaaha ill-Allaah
(I bear witness that there is no god except Allaah),' and you say,
'Ashhadu an laa ilaaha ill-Allaah (I bear witness that there is no god
except Allaah)'; then he says, 'Ashhadu anna Muhammadan rasool-Allaah
(I bear witness thatMuhammad is the Messenger of Allaah),' and you
say, 'Ashhadu anna Muhammadan rasool-Allaah (I bear witness
thatMuhammad is the Messenger of Allaah)'; then he says, 'Hayya
'ala'l-salaah (Come to prayer),' and you say, 'La hawla walaa quwwata
illa Billaah (There is no power and nostrength except with Allaah)';
then he says, 'Hayya 'ala'l-falaah (Come to prosperity),' and you say,
'Laa hawla wa laa quwwata illa Billaah (There is no power and
nostrength except with Allaah)'; then he says,
