Commencement of Adhan, Iqamah, and the Excellence of Reading them
16ـ عَلِيُّ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ سَهْلِ بْنِ زِيَادٍ عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ أَبِي نَصْرٍ عَنْ أَبِي الْحَسَنِ (عَلَيْهِ الْسَّلام) قَالَ يُؤَذِّنُ الرَّجُلُ وَهُوَ جَالِسٌ وَلاَ يُقِمْ إِلاَّ وَهُوَ قَائِمٌ وَتُؤَذِّنُ وَأَنْتَ رَاكِبٌ وَلاَ تُقِمْ إِلاَّ وَأَنْتَ عَلَى الأرْضِ.
16. Ali ibn Muhammad has narrated from Sahl ibn Ziyad from Ahmad ibn Muhammad from ibn abu Nasr who has said the following: “Abu al-Hassan عليه السلام, has said, ‘A man says Adhan when sitting but does not say ‘Iqamah unless he is standing. You can say Adhan when riding but do not say ‘Iqamah unless you are on the ground.’”
