Turkish Site Hizmet Books : Loudspeaker in ibadath 2

We may quote famous Turkish Web Site Hizmet Bokks on the usage of loudspeaker in ibadath vide http://www.hizmetbooks.org/Endless_Bliss_Fourth_Fascile/Endless_Bliss_Fourth_Fascile_Chapter_11.htm
 
[As it is understood, shouting is necessary as much as to be heard in one's own district. More than this is not permitted. There is no need to use a loud-speaker. It is a bidat to practice the adhan or iqamat through a loud-speaker or radio broadcast. An ibadat done with bidat is not acceptable but sinful.]
 ..........................................................................................................................
 
[In addition to the fact that it is sinful to raise the voice more than necessary, what is produced by the loud-speaker is not the imam's or the muazzin's voice. Their voice turns into electricity and magnetism. So what is heard is the sound produced by electricity and magnetism. It is necessary to hear the voice of a person who is performing the same namaz. The namaz of those who follow the voice of someone who is not performing the same namaz, or the sound produced by any apparatus, is not sahih.

It is written on the five hundred and seventeenth page of the first volume of the book Radd-ul-mukhtar, "If a hafiz's voice spreads out and gets multiplied on mountains, in desert, in forests or through any other means, these second sounds will not be the Qur'an. It is not necessary to perform sajda with the ayat of sajda heard from them."

It is written in Halabi al-kabir that these recitals are not human recitals, but they are like human recitals. These clear statements by specialists of Islam show that it is wrong to read or listen to the adhan or the Qur'an al- karim through radios or loud-speakers or to perform namaz by following them. It is written in detail on page 2361 of the third volume of the book of Tafsir written by Muhammad Hamdi Effendi of Elmali that it is not permissible to call the adhan or to recite the Qur'an al-karim through a loudspeaker or on the radio.

 In especial, it is both not sahih and an abominable bidat to follow an imam in another building through a loudspeaker. It is a grave sin. Please see the third page of the seventy-second chapter and also the fifty-second chapter in the first part of the Turkish version!

The loud-speaker put on minarets has become a means of laziness for some people and caused him to say the adhan sitting in dark rooms without following the sunnat.

It is written in Fatawa-yi-Hindiyya, "It is makruh to call the adhan before the prayer time comes, to say it inside the mosque, to say it sitting, to raise the voice more than one's normal puissance, not to say it in the direction of qibla, or to say it melodiously. A person who arrives as the iqamat is being said, sits down. Then he stands up together with all the others as the muazzin says 'hayya-alal-falah.' " Ibni Abidin states at the beginning of the subject about namaz, "The adhan called at its prescribed time is the Islamic adhan. The adhan called before its time is no more than a talk. It means to make fun of Islam."

And minarets, our spiritual ornaments that have been soaring in the sky for centuries, have been made a mast of loud-speaker because of this atrocious bidat. Islamic savants have always consented to scientific inventions. So it is doubtless that useful broadcasting by TV's, radios and loud- speakers everywhere is an invention which Islam consents to and will utilize. But it has been harmful to deprive Muslims of the sweet voice of adhan and to conduct the worships with the lacerating sound of the loud-speaker. It is unnecessary prodigality to install loud- speakers in mosques. When this apparatus did not exist, which clatters as if it were a church bell instead of the voices of pious believers that would impress hearts with iman divinely, the adhans said on minarets and the voices of takbir in mosques used to move even foreigners to enthusiasm. The jamaat that filled the mosques upon hearing the adhans said at every quarter used to perform their namaz in khushu' (deep and humble reverence), as had been in the time of the Sahaba. This heavenly effect of the adhan that would move believers to raptures has been fading away in the metallic sounds of loudspeakers.]

  1. The ulama wich claims that namaz with mikrophone or poudspeaker is permissible and sahih does not know whats the matter... If they would know what kind of voice is coming aout through the minrophone or loudspeaker so they would not claim that it is sahih and permissible....but those ulama which knows whats the matter is but still claims the namaz with loudspeaker is sahih so he is a very great cahil who learned all his 'ilm to be mutakabbir with it and aq big stolid... These are not really ulama...it isclear and obvious that this issue is nothing to discuss about it because the proponents of namaz with loudspeaker have nothing what shows that they are right.....
