Does a woman call the adhan and iqamah for congregational and individual prayer like men do, and an explanation of the virtue of the adhan

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh : So, the one who asked about his prayer was commanded to call the adhan and iqamah while he was praying alone in the mosque. This hadith indicates that it is not permissible for any person who prays to neglect the adhan and iqamah, including women, and especially in women’s congregational prayer. There is also a sound hadith regarding a very great virtue for one who is in a desert area and prayer time arrives, so he calls the adhan and iqamah. He (peace and blessings be upon him) said:
Except that those of Allah’s creation who are behind him in prayer, whose ends cannot be seen, will pray behind him إلاّ صلى خلفه مِن خلق الله ما لا يُرى طرفاه
. Why? Because he announced the prayer with "Allahu Akbar, Allahu Akbar," then followed it with the second announcement, which is lower in rank, which is the iqamah, and then he prayed, even if he was alone in this valley, in this wilderness, in this desert.
Except that those of Allah’s creation who are behind him in prayer, whose ends cannot be seen, will pray behind him إلا صلى خلفه من خلق الله ما لا يرى طرفاه
. So it is fitting for every Muslim to be keen on the adhan and iqamah before the prayer, even if he is praying alone. What about when he is praying in congregation? That is even more necessary and more necessary. Yes, that is correct.
