Muazzin in miraaj
Question
Who was the muadhin when Rasulullah صل الله عليه وسلم went on Mi'raj to Musjid al Aqsa?
Answer
Rasulullah (sallallahu alaihi wasallam) was taken on the miraculous journey of Meraaj before he made hijrah to Madinah Munawwarah.
At that time, salaah was not yet made fard upon the ummah and azaan was not yet prescribed in Shariah. Azaan was only prescribed after the hijrah to Madinah Munawwarah. Hence, at that time, there was no muazzin.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
