Question:
The questioner says—may the Shaykh be respected—in this question: Do the sunnah prayers, or the sunnah rak'ahs, have an iqamah?
Answer:
They do not have an iqamah; the iqamah is for the obligatory prayers. As for the voluntary prayers, they do not have an iqamah. The eclipse prayer does not have an iqamah, the prayer for rain does not have an iqamah, and the festival prayer does not have an iqamah. Yes.
The iqamah is for the five daily prayers; they have an adhan and an iqamah, the five daily prayers. Yes.
