Question

If the Azaan starts while testing hifdh students, is it better to pause the recitation and reply to the Azaan or should the student carry on reciting but then can (the ustaadh) reply to the Azaan?

Answer

It is permissible to continue, but it is better to pause.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
