Is it true that Muhammad (SAW) never gave azaan? & is the reason mentioned in the above a valid reason? if not what was the reason of Muhammad (SAW) never calling out azaan?
Answer
In the name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful
Assalaamu `alaykum waRahmatullahi Wabarakatuh
Rasulullah (sallallahu alayhi wasallam) used to be the Imam. He appointed some Sahaba to call out the Azaan. It is not recorded that Rasulullah (sallallahu alayhi wasallam) called out the Azaan.
The reason explained for Rasulullah (sallallahu alayhi wasallam) not calling out the Azaan has no basis. If that was the case, the mission of Rasulullah (sallallahu alayhi wasallam) could be easily fulfilled by him giving one Azaan and all his enemies would come to the musjid.
And Allah knows best

Fatawa SA is an independent, read-only index of fatawa already published by Darul Iftaa Mahmudiyyah (AskImam). It is not a fatwa service. For your own situation, ask the issuing Darul Ifta directly.
