Combining the adhan and the iqamah in the 'Isha' prayer in Ramadan

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. The questioner says: In Ramadan, some mosques combine the adhan and the iqamah together for the 'Isha' prayer. In this case, is the required time realized, given that the hadith states that between the adhan and the iqamah there is a supplication that is answered?

Answer:
There should be an interval between the adhan and the iqamah that allows people to perform wudu', prepare themselves, and attend, so that those far from the mosque can also arrive. Therefore, do not combine them; the adhan should not be combined with the iqamah, because it deprives people of the opportunity intended by the adhan. The adhan is meant to call people to attend, so there should be a gap between it and the iqamah that enables the Muslims and the neighbors of the mosque to attend and catch the prayer. Yes.
