  • Adhan: The Call to Prayer
    Adhan is made at the time of each Salah to announce the prayer time has come in and to call people to pray. The mu'adhdhin (muzzein, one giving the call) recites the adhan in a loud, melodious voice, pausing after each line. Lift your hands, palms open, and put your fingers in your ears as you give the call. Turn your head to the right as you say “Hayya ‘ala-s-salah” and to the left as you say “Hayya ‘ala-l-falah”.

    Allâhu akbar Allâhu akbar

    Allâhu akbar Allâhu akbar

    ash-hadu al-lââ ilâha illa-llâh

    ash-hadu al-lââ ilâha illa-llâh

    ash-hadu anna muhammadan rasûlu-llâh

    ash-hadu anna muhammadan rasûlu-llâh

    hayya ‘ala-s-salâh hayya ‘ala-s-salâh

    hayya ‘ala-l-falâh hayya ‘ala-l-falâh

    Allâhu akbar, Allâhu akbar

    lââ ilâha illa-llâh

    Allâh is Supreme! Allâh is Supreme!

    Allâh is Supreme! Allâh is Supreme!

    I witness that there is no god but Allâh

    I witness that there is no god but Allâh


    I witness that Muhammad is the messenger of Allâh

    I witness that Muhammad is the messenger of Allâh

    Come to the prayer. Come to the prayer.

    Come to success. Come to success.

    Allâh is Supreme! Allâh is Supreme!

    There is no god but Allâh



    Note: For al-fajr (the morning prayer), the following words are added just after hayya ‘ala-s-salâh.

    as-salâtu khayrum min an-nowm

    a s-salâtu khayrum min an-nowm
    Prayer is better than sleep

    Prayer is better than sleep

    It is customary for those hearing the adhan to repeat each line. On the lines beging with "hayya ‘ala" (Come into...), say the following:

    lâ hawla wa lâ quwwata illâ bi-llâh

    There is no power and no strength except by Allâh.

    After the call has been made, it is customary for everyone listening to recite a du‘a (supplication):

    allâhumma rabba hâdhihi-d-da‘wati-t-tâmmâti

    wa salâti-l-qâ'imati âti muhammadan

    al-wasîlati wa-l-fa
    dîlata

    wa-b‘ath-hu maqâmam-mahmûdâ

    alladhî wa‘adtah

    O Allâh! Lord of this perfect call

    and everlasting prayer, grant Muhammad nearness

    and excellence

    and raise him to the station of glory

    which You have promised him
