Ramadhaan The Majlis Vol 26 No 07, p.3

Athaan for Maghrib is given three minutes after sunset.

Question

Athaan for Maghrib is given three minutes after sunset. The Muath-thin in Ramadhan made an error and gave Athaan two minutes before the Athaan time. Everyone made Iftaar. Should qadha be made?

Answer

If Athaan is usually given three minutes after sunset and the Muath-thin this time called the Athaan two minutes earlier than the usual time, then there is no need for Qadha because the sun had already set a minute earlier.
