Call to Prayers (Adhaan)
Chapter: When offering Salat (prayer) alone, one can prolong the Salat as much as one wishes
Narrated Abu Huraira:
Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said, "If anyone of you leads the people in the prayer, he should shorten it for amongst them are the weak, the sick and the old; and if anyone among your prays alone then he may prolong (the prayer) as much as he wishes. "
