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

اَلْحُسَيْنُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ عَنِ اَلْحَسَنِ أَخِيهِ عَنْ زُرْعَةَ عَنْ سَمَاعَةَ قَالَ قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ:« لاَ تُصَلِّ اَلْغَدَاةَ وَ اَلْمَغْرِبَ إِلاَّ بِأَذَانٍ وَ إِقَامَةٍ وَ رُخِّصَ فِي سَائِرِ اَلصَّلَوَاتِ بِالْإِقَامَةِ وَ اَلْأَذَانُ أَفْضَلُ»
Narrated by al-Husayn ibn Sa’id from his brother al-Hasan from Zur’ah from Sama’ah, who said: Abu Abdillah عليه السلام said: "Do not pray the morning (ghadah) and Maghrib prayers except with adhan and iqamah, and it is permitted in the rest of the prayers to suffice with the iqamah, but the adhan is better."
