Commencement of Adhan, Iqamah, and the Excellence of Reading them

25ـ عَلِيُّ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ مَهْزِيَارَ عَنْ بَعْضِ أَصْحَابِنَا عَنْ إِسْمَاعِيلَ بْنِ جَابِرٍ أَنَّ أَبَا عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيْهِ الْسَّلام) كَانَ يُؤَذِّنُ وَيُقِيمُ غَيْرُهُ وَقَالَ كَانَ يُقِيمُ وَقَدْ أَذَّنَ غَيْرُهُ.
25. Ali ibn Ibrahim has narrated from his father from Ali ibn Mahziyar from certain persons of our people from ’Isma‘il ibn Jabir who has said the following: “Abu ‘Abd Allah عليه السلام, would say Adhan and someone else would say ‘Iqamah.’ He (the narrator) has said that Abu ‘Abd Allah عليه السلام, would say ‘Iqamah and someone else would say Adhan.’”
