Question:
May Allah reward you. This questioner asks: Is the adhan and iqamah obligatory for a woman in her home? The matter has become confused for us between what is obligatory and what is not. Since prayer is the second pillar of Islam and the foundation of the religion, we strive to complete it in the best possible way. May Allah reward you with good.
Answer:
The adhan and iqamah are specific to men. As for the woman, she is not required to perform the adhan or the iqamah. She prays following the adhan of the mosques and the adhan of the mu'adhdhins who are around her. Yes.
