The ruling on the adhan for one who is alone, and the minimum number required to form a congregation
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
Is the adhan obligatory for one who is alone, or for one who is with his wife? And what is the minimum number required to form a congregation?
The Shaykh:
Rather, in a town, the adhan of the mosques is sufficient. As for in the desert, it is recommended to call the adhan.
The questioner:
He says: And what is the minimum number by which a congregation is formed?
The Shaykh:
Two or more. In the hadith, two and above constitute a congregation. Yes.
