Is the adhan and iqamah prescribed for a person praying alone in the desert?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you. This questioner is from the program "A Group of Questions." A student of knowledge says he is from Qatar. He asks the Honorable Shaykh: First, if a person is in the desert, does he perform the iqamah and adhan if he is praying the obligatory prayers alone?

Answer:
Yes, it is prescribed for him to call the adhan and iqamah even if he is alone, because of the reward and merit in doing so, for nothing around him hears it except that it seeks forgiveness for him. Yes.
