Re: is it ok to talk during the azaan?

Yes, women listening at home should remain quiet and reply to the words of the Azaan after the Mu'azzin. The Azaan is a great symbol of Islam and full respect and sanctity should be shown to it by remaining silent and replying to the words. When azaan is being said one should listen very attentively, answering the azaan. At that time, one is not allowed to talk, to say salaam, or to answer to a salaam. Even if some one is reading the Holy Quran they too are ordered to stop and answer the azaan.
In the Ahadith the following benefits have been mentioned
In exchange of every Kalima, Allah writes 100,000 goodnesses [in your record of deeds], upgrades you by 1,000 grades and removes 1,000 of your sins. [Ibn-e-Asakar]
In Tabrani it is stated for exchange of every kalima one will be upgraded by one million grades.
When the muazzin says azan, whoever says the same [words], when he says or
they answer , they will enter paradise [Muslim]
Rasulullah SAW has said, "O womenfolk! When you hear the Azaan and Iqaamah of this Abysinnian (i.e. Hazrat Belal R.A.) then say as he says (i.e. repeat the words after him). For this you will receive a thousand thousand stages for each letter....." (Targheeb) Furthermore, one should recite Durood Shareef after the Azaan and thereafter the Masnoon Duaa, "Allahumma Rabba Hazihi-Da'watit-Tammah ......."
