The question

Is what one of the scholars on Iqra TV mentioned about the Messenger, peace and blessings be upon him, performing prayer in a Companion's house without the adhan, and his saying "the mosque's adhan suffices for that," correct? And is it permissible for a person to perform prayer in his home without the adhan?

The answer

It is not obligatory for someone praying at home to recite the Adhan (call to prayer), as the Adhan is a communal obligation (fard kifaya). One Adhan from the mosque that reaches the people of the town is sufficient. As for the Adhan for someone praying at home, it is a recommended act, not an obligatory one. Furthermore, congregational prayer in the mosque is among the greatest rituals of Islam.
