Ask The Imam Question and Answer

97 When a child is born, why do we say Azaan in his/her right ear and ikhamath in their left ear?
Ijma of Ulema have said that this process means that the Azaan is the welcome to this world and the ikamat a reminder of death, to remind the new born that the time on earth is short. The process of Azaan and Ikamat is such that they follow one another.The first voice that should be said in the childs ear is the name of Allah (S.W.T).
