Unveiling the Spiritual Melody: Delve Into the Significance and Rituals Surrounding Al-Adhan in Islamic Tradition” The mu’adh-dhin calls out the adhan five times a day in the mosque.
Muslims then get ready to offer salah. The adhan tells us the Muslims that it is time for prayer, Time for Dua.
When you hear the adhan, you should prepare yourself for salah. You should leave aside whatever you may be doing at that time as soon as possible.
The wording of the adhan is:
- Allaahu Akbar, Allaahu Akbar
Allah is Most Great, Allah is Most Great
- Allaahu Akbar, Allaahu Akbar
Allah is Most Great, Allah is Most Great
- ash-hadu allaa-ilaaha illallaah
I testify that there is no god but Allah
- ash-hadu allaa-ilaaha illallaah
I testify that there is no god but Allah
- ash-hadu anna muhammadar rasoolullaah
I testify that Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah
- ash-hadu anna muhammadar rasoolullaah
I testify that Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah
- hayya ‘alassalah, hayya ‘alassalah Hasten to the Dua, hasten to the Dua
- hayya ‘alai falaah, hayya ‘alai falaah Hasten to success, hasten to success
- Altaahu Akbar, Allaahu Akbar
Allah is Most Great. Allah is Most Great
- Laa-ilaaha illallaah There is no god but Allah

How powerful the call is!
How beautiful the words are!
After adhan, it is recommended to say the following du‘a’:
اللَّهُمَّ رَبَّ هَذِهِ الدَّعْوَةِ التَّامَّةِ، وَالصَّلاةِ الْقَائِمَةِ، آتِ مُحَمَّدًا الْوَسِيلَةَ وَالْفَضِيلَةَ، وَابْعَثْهُ مَقَامًا مَحْمُودًا الَّذِي وَعَدْتَهُ.
Transliteration: Allahumma Rabba hadhihid-da’watit-tammati, wassalatil-qaimati, ati Muhammadan al-wasilata wal-fadilah, wab’athhu maqaman mahmudan alladhi wa’adtahu.
Translation: “O Allah, Lord of this perfect call and established prayer, grant Muhammad the intercession and favor, and raise him to the honored station You have promised him.”
What does al-Adhan tell us
message?
Al-Adhan tells us that the time for prayer, time for Dua, time for Abidah has come. Since performing a prayer is a form of worship specific to Muslims, new Muslims , hearing al-Adhan tells us that there are Muslims in that community. Al-Adhan which is called five times a day reminds us of the Oneness of God.
