The Athaan is not repeated when one prays
Some people continue reciting the Quran while the Athaan (i.e. call for prayer) is being called? Is there any sin in doing so even though it is a good act in itself? May Allaah The Almighty Bless you.

The majority of scholars are of the opinion that repeating the Athaan is a recommended act of worship. However, the Hanafi and Ath-Thaahiriyyah scholars are of the opinion that it is obligatory. They acted according to the apparent meaning of the Hadeeth where the Prophet, sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam, said: " Nevertheless, one who hears the call to prayer should repeat what the Mu’athin says even if he is reciting the Quran, unless he is praying. When one is in prayer, as I understood from the question, the majority of scholars are of the opinion that he does not need to repeat the Athaan. This is based on the Hadeeth where the Prophet, sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam, said: " Maaliki scholars are of the opinion that he should repeat it if he is performing a voluntary prayer but not an obligatory one. To sum up, when one resumes praying while hearing the Athaan, he is not sinful. Rather, what he is doing is sound according to the majority of scholars. However, it is recommended to lower his voice in his recitation in order not to confuse the Mu’athin.
