Responding to Multiple Adhans: A Guide for Muslims

The Proper Etiquette for Responding to Simultaneous Calls to Prayer

Question: When multiple calls to prayer (adhan) are heard simultaneously, how should we respond?

Answer: In Muslim areas, it is common to hear multiple adhans at the same time. You should respond to as many of them as possible. The more you respond, the greater the reward. Ideally, respond to the closest adhan you can hear clearly, and after completing your response, recite the supplication after the adhan.
