Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : Is prayer permissible without the adhan?
The Shaykh : A person in his town who hears the mu'adhdhins is sufficient with their adhan. However, for example, if a group goes out on a picnic in the desert, if they pray without the adhan, the prayer is valid, but they are sinful for not giving the adhan, because the adhan is a collective obligation. Therefore, they must give the adhan, and if they leave it, they sin. As for the prayer, it is valid.
