Should he pray Tahiyyat al-Masjid or listen to the Adhaan?

Question: 5070

I entered the mosque and the
adhaan was being given for the prayer. Should I pray Tahiyyat al-Masjid or wait until the
adhaan finishes?

Answer

Praise be to Allah, and blessings and peace be upon the Messenger of Allah. To proceed:

It is better to respond to the adhaan first, then pray Tahiyyat al-Masjid, so as to combine two virtuous deeds. But the issue is flexible.

And Allaah is the source of strength. May Allaah bless our Prophet Muhammad and his family and companions.
