LessonsBab al-Adhan: The Adhan, Iqamah and Juristic RulingsQuiz

الْأَذَانُ سُنَّةٌ لِلصَّلَوَاتِ الْخَمْسِ وَالْجُمُعَةِ دُونَ مَا سِوَاهَا
Translation: Adhan is a Sunnah for the five prescribed daily prayers and Jumu‘ah, not for other prayers.

Adhan is a firmly established practice for the five daily prayers and Friday prayer. It is not prescribed in the same form for Eid, funeral, or eclipse prayers.

Mentioning Friday prayer separately does not make it a sixth daily prayer; its congregational status warrants an express mention.
