Hi Folks,
Have you ever seen a mosque, is there one near to your house?
If so, you must then at least once heard a Moslem man saying something by the microphone five times a day, this man is called (Muezzin): A person who calls for prayers in the mosque i.e. Muslim crier who proclaims the hours of prayer. [Arabic] The AZAN is the call. The AZAN’s context is the following:
Allah is the greatest (4 times) I bear witness that there is no god but ALLAH (2 times). And I bear witness that Muhammad is the messenger of Allah (2). Come to the prayer (2) Come to success (2) Allah is the greatest (2) there is no God But Allah (1)
You can hear the (AZAN =ADAN) by Yusuf Islam clickč AZAN (http://www.islam-online.net/arabic/famous/2003/06/images/Adan.ram)
By the way some of Muezzins have there own style in calling
Yours Sincerely,
Cat Stevens
