Greeting the caller to prayer
Question
What is the ruling on greeting the caller to prayer?
Answer
The Hanafi, Maliki, and Shafiʿi schools of jurisprudence maintain that it is disliked to greet the caller to prayer, the muezzin, because he would then be required to return the greeting. This would interrupt the sequence of the sentences of the call to prayer, which is also disliked.[1]
And Allah Almighty knows best.
