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

Adhan is Sunnah for the five daily prayers and Jumu‘ah. The Hanafi adhan omits tarjī‘ but includes the Fajr addition twice.

Iqamah closely resembles adhan with “qad qamat al-salah” added twice. Adhan is measured; iqamah is brisker; both are normally given facing the qiblah, with the familiar face-turning at the calls to prayer.

Missed prayers, ritual purity, and prayer-time entry have distinct rules. Abu Yusuf's early-adhaan exception concerns Fajr alone.
