Athaan not obligatory when praying at home in congregation
I and my family pray together. When we come to pray, do we have to say the athaan, or can we just start the prayer right away? Say that we pray the Thuhr at 3 PM, do we have to say the athaan then? I hope that my question is clear.

Saying ‘Muhammadun Rasoolullaah,’ after repeating the Iqaamah
Assalaamu alaykum wa rahmatullaahi wa barakaatuhu. Specifically regarding the Iqaamah (second, small call to the prayer), not the azan. Regarding the muezzin when he recites the Iqaamah: specificallywhen the muezzin says the last sentence 'Laa ilaha illAllaah'.

Time for prayer between athaan and iqaamah
Assalaamu alaykum wa rahmatullaahi wa barakaatuh. Does the hadith: “There is a prayer between every azan and iqamaah(second and final call to prayer)” has to do with the azan itself or with the time of the prayer. For example, if the ʻAsr is at 15:00 but the mosque gives the azan at 15:30 and I have already prayed four rak'ahs at home and two.. More

Repeating after the mu'aththin if he mispronounces the athaan
Assalaamu alaykum wa rahmatullaahi wa barakaatuh. The muezzin in our mosque pronounces the azan very badly. He elonges some things in such a way that the meaning is changed. Is it still prescribed for me to repeat his words? Please note that he has already been advised but does not listen to those advising him.

Not every Hadeeth was said in a specific context
What are the circumstances and specific context in which this Hadeeth was said? It was reported on the authority of ‘Abdullaah ibn ‘Amr ibn Al-‘Aas, may Allaah be pleased with him, that the Prophet, sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam, said:

Whoever is prevented from repeating the azan receives the complete reward for it
I have a problem that whenever I hear the Azaan, I feel a sudden urge to relieve myself and I cannot hold it until after the Azaan, although I may have been just coming out of the toilet the very minute of calling the Azaan. I feel sad that I do not listen to the Azaan while in the bathroom and feel as if I am committing a misdeed. Could you please.. More

Saying 'La Ilaha Ila Allaah' in a loud voice when the Muezzin pronounces it in the Iqaamah
When the Muezzin calls the Iqaamah (second, small call to prayer) of the prayer, some fellow Muslims say 'La Ilaha Illa Allaah' in a loud voice. The Imaam objected to this, saying that this action does not belong to Islam and is not authentically proven to have been done by the Messenger of Allaah, sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam, or his Companions,..
