Adhan by Fasih Ud Din Soharwardi
In Turkey, the Islamic call to prayer, known as the Adhan, is an integral part of daily life for Muslims. The Adhan is recited by the muezzin, typically from the minaret of a mosque, to announce the five daily prayers. The timing of the Adhan is based on the movements of the sun and varies throughout the day.
The Adhan is recited in Arabic and typically includes the following phrases:
Allahu Akbar (God is the Greatest) – repeated four times
Ashhadu an la ilaha illa Allah (I bear witness that there is no god but Allah) – repeated two times
Ashhadu anna Muhammadan rasool Allah (I bear witness that Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah) – repeated two times
Hayya ‘ala-s-Salah (Hasten to prayer) – repeated two times
Hayya ‘ala-l-Falah (Hasten to success) – repeated two times
Allahu Akbar (God is the Greatest) – repeated two times
La ilaha illa Allah (There is no god but Allah) – repeated one time
In Turkey, the Adhan is recited in a melodious and captivating manner, and it holds significant cultural and religious importance. It serves as a reminder to Muslims to pause from their daily activities and engage in prayer, fostering a sense of community and spiritual connection.
