Azaan and Iqaamah

Q: Can a person wearing shirt and pants be put forward to give the azan on a regular basis, in a masjid where there are other people in Sunnat dressing? 

Q: In my area, the nearest masjid is about 10kms. There is also a musalla nearby but azaan from the masjid or the musalla is not heard. However, for several reasons, I have to perform salaat on my own at home and, in the circumstances, is it imperative to give azaan and recite iqaamat before salaat? Does this also apply if one is also performing missed salaats?

Q: I was asked by a female Muslim friend who is married to a Christian/Atheist, to give Azaan for their baby they expecting. Please can I get some guidance on the Islamic aspects of this?

Is the baby Muslim?

Do I have any obligations towards the baby etc?

Q: I live in a Muslim Village of about 200 households. We have 6 (six) mosques in our locality and all of them uses loudspeakers for Azan. I’ve read that we must answer the call to prayer. Sometimes the Azans from all the mosques don’t overlap and I’ve been left wondering if answering one is enough or do I have to answer all of them. Please clarify. Also on one site I read that using loudspeakers for Azan is an act of Bida’at. Is it so?

Q: Is it bad to remain in a laying position while Adhan is going on?

Q: What is the position of waseela that we make dua to be granted to our beloved prophet Muhammad (Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam) after Azan?

Q: The area I live in, the azaan of the masjids go on one after another. So is it correct if I pause my work only for the athaan of the masjid nearest to me?

Q:

1. Our house is near the musjid. Whenever the adhan is called out, we can hear it clearly. After Maghrib I usually study/memorize qur'an so whenever the adhan is called should I stop and listen to the adhan until it is fnished or I can continue studying while the adhan is being called?

2. Is there a dua after adhan?

Q: During periods (menses), is it permissible to answer the Azaan? And do we offer the wasila afterwards?

Q: There are 6-7 masjids in our area from where we easily hear the azan. One thing that is bothering is that as soon as muazzin of masjid 'A' starts calling azan, the dogs of this locality start barking. It happens 5 times a day, and only when muazzin of masjid 'A' calls azan. If muazzan is not there and some other person comes to masjid 'A' to call azan, then dogs do not bark. some people of locality say that this muazzan should be changed, others say these dogs must be thrown away. What could be the correct thing to do?
