The Adhan and Iqamah for One Who Prays Alone
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you. The questioner says: If a person sometimes prays the obligatory prayers alone because there is no mosque nearby, is he required to perform the adhan and iqamah for every prayer, or is it permissible for him to pray without the adhan or without the iqamah?
Answer:
He is not required to perform the adhan and iqamah, but if he does perform them, it is better, because it is reported in the hadith that the shepherd in the desert who calls the adhan and iqamah pleases Allah, and the adhan and iqamah are remembrance of Allah the Exalted.
