Is it permissible for someone working in a school to call the adhan and then immediately the iqamah for prayer?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, we work in a school. When the time for the midday prayer enters, we call the adhan, then we immediately call the iqamah for prayer without waiting or leaving a time between the adhan and the iqamah. Is this permissible?

Answer:
If all the worshippers are present, then it is permissible, because the waiting is for the one who needs to perform wudu' or for the one who comes from far away. But if they are all present and ready to enter the prayer, there is no harm; it is not obligatory to make a time gap between the iqamah and the prayer except when there is a need. And you have no need for this. Yes.
