Is the adhan and iqamah among the characteristics of men?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
A listener from Yemen, Salah Muhsin Muhammad, sent a question asking: Is the adhan prescribed for a woman, and is the iqamah prescribed for her? Please clarify this for us. May Allah reward you with good.
Answer: The adhan and iqamah are among the characteristics of men. As for the woman, she prays without an adhan and without an iqamah. It has not been reported in the Shari'ah that she calls the adhan or the iqamah; rather, this is for men only. Yes.
The presenter: May Allah reward you with good.
