Question : May Allah forgive you, and you are in the wrong.
Answer : Yes, it is valid, it is valid, as long as there is no fitnah (trial, discord or temptation) or animosity, such that one person gives the iqamah before the time for iqamah to spite the mu'adhdhin; this is not permissible. But if, for example, the mu'adhdhin gives the iqamah and then leaves for work or something else, there is no harm. Yes.
