Chapter on the Adhan and the Iqamah

أَحْمَدُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ اَلْحَكَمِ عَنْ أَبَانٍ عَنْ أَبِي بَصِيرٍ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ قَالَ: قُلْتُ اَلرَّجُلُ يَدْخُلُ اَلْمَسْجِدَ وَ قَدْ صَلَّى اَلْقَوْمُ أَ يُؤَذِّنُ وَ يُقِيمُ قَالَ« إِنْ كَانَ دَخَلَ وَ لَمْ يَتَفَرَّقِ اَلصَّفُّ صَلَّى بِأَذَانِهِمْ وَ إِقَامَتِهِمْ وَ إِنْ كَانَ تَفَرَّقَ اَلصَّفُّ أَذَّنَ وَ أَقَامَ»
Ahmad ibn Muhammad from Ali ibn Al-Hakam from Aban from Abu Basir from Abu Abdillah عليه السلام, peace be upon him, who said: I asked: “A man enters the mosque and the people have already prayed; should he give the Adhan and the Iqamah?” Imam عليه السلام said: "If he enters and the rows have not dispersed, he should pray with their Adhan and Iqamah. But if the rows have dispersed, he must give the Adhan and the Iqamah."
