'''Iqāmah''' (Arabic: {{ia| الإقامة}} ) is a set of phrases recited after [[Adhan]] as an introduction for [[prayer]]. Reciting Iqamah is not [[wajib|compulsory]] before [[daily prayers]], rather it is highly [[recommended]] and is one of the traditions of the [[Prophet (s)]].

The way Iqamah is recited differs slightly from the Adhan. In Iqamah, the [[Takbir]] is repeated twice at the beginning (compared to four times in the Adhan), and the final [[Tahlil]] is repeated once (instead of twice in the Adhan). Additionally, in Iqamah, the phrase 'Qad Qāmat al-Ṣalāh' is said twice, following 'Hayya 'ala Khair al-'Amal' and before the final Takbir and Tahlil, indicating that the prayer has been established. This phrase, however, is not found in the Adhan.

Reciting the phrase "Ashhad-u anna 'aliayyan waliullah" (I bear witness Ali is the vicegerent of Allah) is prevalent in Shi'a from the early times. However, according to Shi'a hadith and jurisprudential sources, it is not a part of [[Adhan]] nor Iqamah.
