A Comparative Study of Legitimacy of Affirmation from Shiite and Sunnite's Viewpoint

Imamate scholars all agree that affirmation in the Call to Prayer is forbidden and has never been part of the morning Call to Prayer, but there is disagreement among Sunni scholars as to whether affirmation in the Call to Prayer is permissible or not. Most Sunni scholars consider saying this sentence in the morning Call to Prayer to be legitimate and recommended and quitting is abandoned; but some Sunni scholars such as Abu   Hanifa has emphasized its heresy. This article aims to critique and analyze the reasons for the legitimacy of affirmation by the majority of Sunnis using a descriptive-analytical method. That is to say, Bilal and Abi Mahzoor conclude that both narrations have a serious weaknesses, both in terms of authenticity and causal.
