Question:
Honorable Shaykh, the questioner says: If I am in a place where I hear the adhan but cannot go to the mosque because of my work in security, is it obligatory for me in this case to call the adhan, or should I proceed directly to the iqamah? And what is the ruling on one who prays without an adhan and iqamah?
Answer:
As long as you hear the adhan, the adhan is sufficient; you should call the iqamah and pray. You do not call the adhan unless you did not hear an adhan, in which case you call it. But as long as you hear the adhan, it is sufficient. Yes.
