1.0 ADHAN
2.1 Its form
1. Adhan is sunnah for the five prayers and jumu`ah, not any others.
2. The method of adhan is that one say, Allahu Akbar Allahu Akbar . . . .
and there is no tarji` in it.
3. In the adhan of fajr, one adds, after Falah, As-salatu khayrum-min an-nawm [twice].
4. Iqamah is like adhan, except that one adds after Falah, Qad qamatis-salah twice.
2.2 Its sunnahs
1. One is leisurely in adhan, and hastens iqamah.
2. One faces the qiblah.
3. When one reaches Salah and Falah one turns one’s face right and left.
4. One makes adhan and iqamah for missed prayers. If one missed more than one prayer, one makes adhan and iqamah for the first, and for the remainder has the choice:
- if one wishes, one makes adhan and iqamah,
- or, if one wishes, one suffices with the iqamah.
5. It is appropriate that one make adhan in [a state of] purity, but if one makes adhan without purity, it is valid. It is disliked to make iqamah without wudu’, or to make adhan while in janabah.
6. One does not make adhan for a prayer before its time has entered.
