Virtues of the Muazzin

• It was the desire of Sahaabah (radhiyallahu ‘anhum) to call out the azaan and they desired that their children also call out the azaan.

عن علي رضي الله عنه قال ندمت أن لا أكون طلبت إلى رسول الله صلى الله عليه و سلم فيجعل الحسن والحسين مؤذنين رواه الطبراني في الأوسط وفيه الحارث وهو ضعيف (مجمع الزوائد #1836)

It is reported that Hazrat ‘Ali (radhiyallahu ‘anhu) said, “I feel remorseful over the fact that I did not request Rasulullah (sallallahu ‘alaihi wasallam) regarding my two sons, Hazrat Hasan and Hazrat Husain (radhiyallahu ‘anhuma) that he appoint them as muazzins to call out the azaan (during his mubaarak life).”
