سَأَلْتُهُ أَ يُجْزِئُ أَذَانٌ وَاحِدٌ قَالَ إِنْ صَلَّيْتَ جَمَاعَةً لَمْ يُجْزِئْ إِلَّا أَذَانٌ وَ إِقَامَةٌ وَ إِنْ كُنْتَ وَحْدَكَ تُبَادِرُ أَمْراً تَخَافُ أَنْ يَفُوتَكَ يُجْزِئُكَ إِقَامَةٌ إِلَّا الْفَجْرَ وَ الْمَغْرِبَ فَإِنَّهُ يَنْبَغِي أَنْ تُؤَذِّنَ فِيهِمَا وَ تُقِيمَ مِنْ أَجْلِ أَنَّهُ لَا يَقْصُرُ فِيهِمَا كَمَا يَقْصُرُ فِي سَائِرِ الصَّلَوَاتِ .
Translation
Muhammad Bin Yahya, from Ahmad Bin Muhammad, from Al Husayn Bin Saeed, from Al Qasim Bin Muhammad, from Ali Bin Abu Hamza, from Abu Baseer, (It has been narrated) from one of the two (5<sup>th</sup> or 6<sup>th</sup> Imam<sup>asws</sup>, said, ‘I asked him<sup>asws</sup>, ‘Would one <span class="iTxt">Azān</span> suffice me?’ He<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘When you are praying <span class="iTxt">Salāt</span> in a <span class="iTxt">Jam’at</span>, it would not suffice you except for an <span class="iTxt">Azān</span> and an <span class="iTxt">Iqamah</span>; but if you were alone initiating a matter fearing that it (<span class="iTxt">Salāt</span>) would be missed out by you, an <span class="iTxt">Iqamah</span> would suffice you, except for Al-Fajr and Al-Maghrib, for it is befitting that you recite an <span class="iTxt">Azān</span> regarding these two and an <span class="iTxt">Iqamah</span> due to the reason that there is no shortening in these two just as you would shorten in the rest of the <span class="iTxt">Salāt</span>s’.
