Chapter on the Adhan (Call to Prayer) and the Iqamah

وَ عَنْهُ عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ عَبْدٍ صَالِحٍ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ قَالَ:« يُؤَذِّنُ اَلرَّجُلُ وَ هُوَ جَالِسٌ وَ لاَ يُقِيمُ إِلاَّ وَ هُوَ قَائِمٌ» وَ قَالَ« تُؤَذِّنُ وَ أَنْتَ رَاكِبٌ وَ لاَ تُقِيمُ إِلاَّ وَ أَنْتَ عَلَى اَلْأَرْضِ»
Narrated from him from Ahmad ibn Muhammad: The Righteous servant (Abd Salih عليه السلام), peace be upon him, said: "A man may give the adhan while sitting, but he should not give the iqamah except while standing." And Imam عليه السلام said: "You may give the adhan while riding, but do not give the iqamah except while on the ground."
