Praying Upon Hearing the Adhan

Question
Is it permissible to pray with the adhan, or should we wait until the adhan is finished along with the iqamah? Is this allowed in case of necessity for fear of missing the prayer?
Answer
I say, and with God's success: It is permissible to pray during the call to prayer, but it is contrary to what is preferred. Unless there is a need for it, the prayer should be delayed until after the call to prayer, and there is no need to delay it until the establishment of the prayer for those who do not pray in congregation. And God knows best. And God knows best.
