1. the caller of adhan is called ______.

Explanation:

Identify the non-prophet figure

In Islamic Studies, we learn about the chosen messengers and prophets of Allah.

• Adam, Lut, and Nuh (Noah) are explicitly recognized as Prophets (Anbiya) in Islam.
• Luqman (often called Luqman the Wise) is a highly respected righteous sage mentioned in Surah Luqman of the Quran, but Islamic scholars generally agree he was a wise man (Hakim) rather than a prophet.
• Therefore, Luqman is the exception.

Determine the condition prohibiting ritual prayer

In Islamic jurisprudence (Fiqh) regarding purification and worship:

• A woman who is menstruating (in a state of Hayd) or experiencing post-natal bleeding (Nifas) is ritually impure and is strictly prohibited from performing the ritual prayers (Salah).
• Pregnancy, nursing, or general sickness do not exempt or prohibit a woman from performing Salah, though accommodations (like sitting or lying down) are made for illness.
• Therefore, a woman is not allowed to pray if she is menstruating.

Identify the term for the caller of Adhan

The Adhan is the Islamic call to public ritual prayer (Salah).

• The person who recites the Adhan to summon Muslims to the mosque is called the Mu'adhin (or Muezzin).
• Therefore, the caller of Adhan is called the Mu'adhin.
