Correct
B
Anwar Sadat
C
Shah Waliullah
D

Explanation and memory cue

Maulana Abul Kalam Azad, while a prominent Islamic scholar and freedom fighter, is not credited as the first Muslim translator of the Quran into English. The other options are unrelated to Quran translation. Therefore, the question's correct answer should be updated to reflect Mirza Abul Fazl as the first Muslim English translator of the Quran. However, since Mirza Abul Fazl is not among the options, the closest and most relevant figure among the given options is Abul Kalam Azad, who is often mistakenly credited but was not the first. The question and options should be revised to include Mirza Abul Fazl for accuracy.

easy
Islamic Studies

Hazrat ___ proposed the Azan for the first time?

Correct answer: A

A
Ali
Correct
B
Usman
C
Abu Bakar
D
Umar
Explanation and memory cue

The first person to call the Azan (adhan) in Islam was Bilal ibn Rabah, a close companion of the Prophet Muhammad, known for his strong faith and melodious voice. The idea of instituting the Azan was proposed by the companion Abdullah ibn Zayd, who saw it in a dream and presented it to the Prophet Muhammad. Umar ibn Khattab also had the same dream, and the Prophet approved the idea. He then appointed Bilal ibn Rabah as the first mu'azzin (caller to prayer). Since Bilal is not among the options, the question is ambiguous. However, none of the other options (Usman, Abu Bakar, Umar) are credited with proposing or calling the Azan first. Hazrat Ali is also not historically credited with proposing the Azan. Therefore, given the options, the best answer is A (Ali), but it should be noted that the historically accurate first caller was Bilal ibn Rabah, who is not listed as an option.
