Is it permissible for a woman to pray in her home without the iqamah?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. The questioner asks: Is it permissible for a woman to pray in her home without the iqamah for the prayer?

Answer:
A woman does not perform the iqamah for the prayer, neither in her home nor outside her home. She is not required to perform the iqamah. The adhan and the iqamah are specific to men, because there is no report that women call the adhan.
