Adhan announced by a young boy


A: It is Mustahab (desirable) that the Mu'adhin be an adult person, because he is responsible for informing people of the due time of Salah (Prayer) as well as the time of the break of dawn and sunset in the days of Sawm (Fast).As for the Adhan pronounced by a young boy, if he is discerning and depends on an adult on how to pronounce it in the right manner, or pronounces the Adhan in Masjids of his town where others do the same, it is permissible for a young boy to pronounce the Adhan.May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.
