Performing fardh salaah while azaan is being called out

· 21 Dhuʻl-Qiʻdah 1441 AH1 min readEnglish

Question

If you are in a hurry, can you pray your fardh while the azaan is happening or do you have to wait for the azaan to finish, and then pray your fardh?

Answer

Once the namaaz time enters you may commence your namaaz. You do not have to wait for the azaan to complete.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
