What is the ruling on praying without the iqamah?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, he says: What is the ruling on praying without the iqamah?

Answer:
The prayer is valid without the iqamah, except if no iqamah is established in the entire town, in which case the iqamah is a collective obligation (fard kifayah). If there is someone in the town who calls the adhan and gives the iqamah, then the adhan and iqamah are recommended practices (sunnah) for the rest of the people.
