Iqamaa for a woman performing Fardh prayers

Question 367:

Is iqamaa compulsory upon a woman when performing her Fardh prayers?

Answer :

See the following fatwa of ‘The Permanent Committee for Scholarly Research and Ifta’ ‘

Q: I know that women are not obliged to call Iqamah (the call to prayer). But, is it permissible for them to do it, if they will hold a congregational prayer led by a woman?

A: With regard to women, Iqamah and Adhan are not acts of Sunnah whether they perform Salah individually or in congregation.
May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.
