Call to worship
A prayer call is the vocal announcement summoning Muslims to prayer, traditionally chanted by a muezzin from a mosque's minaret five times daily.
Also called the adhan or azan.
The call follows a prescribed Arabic text proclaiming God's greatness and inviting the faithful to worship: The prayer call echoed across the city at dawn.
