I recently visited Damascus. It was very strange for me to see three Mu'adhins give Adhan together in the great Umayyad Mosque. Is this correct practice according to the Hanafi school? What do the major Deobandi Hanafi scholars say about this?
In the Name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful,
Among classical Hanafi scholars, the renowned Hanafi jurist (Faqih), Imam Ibn Abidin (Allah have mercy on him) states in his magnificent Radd al-Muhtar ala 'l-Durr al-Mukhtar - The primary reference of the fatwa in the Hanafi school across the land, including the subcontinent and Deobandi institutions:
"The Imam Suyuti (Allah have mercy on him) mentions that the delivery of Adhan for two people at one time was first introduced by the Umayyads (Banu Umayyad). Imam Ramli States in his commentary on Al-Bahr "I came across a clear text to indicate if you give Adhan collectively known as al-Adhan Jawq in our land, is a good innovation (bid'a Hasana) or a reprehensible innovation (bid ' to sayyi'a) .. ... However, with respect to the first Adhan [of Jumu'a], is clearly stated in Al-nihayah that "this has been practiced for centuries ..... because for centuries they have been collectively given the Adhan so that the Adhan reaching various parts of the city. "This shows that this practice is not disliked (makrooh) practiced on a continuous measure (mutawarath) can not be makrooh. .. therefore be considered a good practice, since "what Muslims consider good is also considered good by Allah." (Radd al-Muhtar 1 / 390) Imam Ibn Abidin
in the previous text, is the implication that despite devoting Adhan by a group is not explicitly stated through the Sunna, the practice continues in some areas since the time of the Umayyads unopposed indicates its legality. Moreover, there is nothing specific in the Sunna, which denotes the unlawfulness of such practice, and as such, because of the need to allow people in remote locations to hear the Adhan, be allowed to be taken for more than one person.
Among recent Deobandi Hanafi jurists, the Grand Mufti of India later Gangohi Mufti Sheikh Mahmud Hasan (may Allah have mercy on him) also agrees with this view. , Replying to a question him about the legality of the three persons collectively giving the Adhan:
"If necessary [to allow the Adhan to be heard in remote areas], it allows some people in a mosque to give the Adhan collectively." (Fatawa Mahmudiyya 5 / 396, Jami'a Faruqiyya print)
As such, if necessary, would not be eligible for the Adhan should give more than one person at a time, according to Hanafi jurists.
