The '''''' (, ) is the Islamic call to prayer, usually recited by a muezzin, traditionally from the minaret of a mosque, shortly before each of the five obligatory daily prayers.
The adhan is the Islamic call to prayer, typically sung by a designated person called a muezzin from a mosque's tower (minaret) just before each of the five daily prayers that Muslims are required to perform. It serves as a public announcement that prayer time has arrived and is a central part of Islamic religious practice.
