When combining Maghrib and `Isha' Prayers together, should we make only one Adhan and one Iqamah or what?


634

A: When there is a legal excuse for combining the two Salahs (prayers), then one Adhan (call to Salah) and two Iqamahs (call to start the Salah) (one Iqamah for each prayer) are to be made. As for collective supplication, it is Bid`ah (heresy in Islam), whether made after Salah (Prayer) or not. Also imploring Allah's peace and blessings upon the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) collectively is a heresy in Islam. As for repeating aloud what the Imam says when changing positions during the prayer, it may be done by someone so that the Ma'mums (people being led by an Imam in Prayer) shall hear the Imam (the one who leads congregational Prayer) if he is standing afar, due to the multitude of worshippers.May Allah grant us success. Peace and blessings of Allah be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family and companions.
